My camel-rider kept on teleporting back to the starting square, and so the notation got deleted because of "illegal moves", and now my camel-rider somehow got taken by a dead Ferz?
The Rando bot also decided stall for 1 minute and flag, smh

Hey guys, here is my chess variant, the main idea of which is that a chess piece spawns another chess piece when moving around the board. The variant is well tested. Several games have already been played. Your opinion is important to me.

Hi friends,
The adventures with Musketeer Chess made it available for all the funs of Chess variants a total of 30 differents pieces + 28 different alternate Pawn designs (The Next Gen pawns).
I'm thinking about launching a Kickstarter to make available all these pieces in the Rainbow colours.
Also if the goal is reached i'll make available 16 additional new pieces currently under development and a New Classic Chess Set compatible with the Musketeer Chess pieces.
Are there people interested in such products?
If it's the case, please let me know posting a message here and sending me in a private message your email and name so i will let you know when the Kickstarter is launched.
Thank you for your support.

Maybe Add a section entitled Recommended (along with most popular and such) which would have variant(s) chess.com would want to promote or think are the most likely to get new players. The goal would be, for new players, to limit their choices, and get them started on the variants most likely to get them interested. And then they can branch out. Secondly, perhaps have, for established variants, an prominent, "normal" que. Based on the same logic. Third, for established games, perhaps have a 300 above below cue, though high rated players might make this hard, so new players won't start off and get destroyed. Thank you for considering my suggestions. Caleb

The Encyclopedia of Chess Variants by David B. Pritchard. I read this book several months ago (in PDF format), and now I can say with confidence that this is a real treasure for all chess variants lovers.Does anyone here have this book in print?

Anyone have Chess 2: The Sequel? It's an interesting chess variant on steam that adds new pieces that do different things, but it's noticeably lacking in some basic features. If you have the game, you know what I'm talking about. Regardless, I'm still having a lot of fun with it, and wanted to reach out and see if anyone else has a copy of it and is looking for games. Because the multiplayer is dead af, but I'm looking to change that, and I've found a few online games already. Here's the link on Steam, if you don't know what it is and want to take a look at it: https://store.steampowered.com/app/314340/Chess_2_The_Sequel/
If you check it out and think it's something you might be interested in, I made a discord server for it this afternoon. Nothing fancy, just a place to ping people and look for games. https://discord.gg/phCm4bWH

Hi,
The yalta chess is a 3 player chess variant. It looks like this :
if you want more information you can find them here : https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%89checs_Yalta
So, what I am asking is if it were possible to add the yalta chess in chess.com.

After 1 hour of searching, I have an idea:
Grandmaster
Type: Fairy piece
Symbol: GM (Yeah... Actually.)
Movement: Move like a centaur (a centaur (KN) in chess.com is a general (M) ) (king + knight) or jumps three squares diagonally, leaping over any intermediate piece (jump like a tripper (G) ).
Idea from me (I think...)
What do you think about this fairy piece?

Classic chess, but any piece (except for the king and queen) is turned on the 7-8 ranks.The pawns are transformed on 8 ranks for White (1 for Black) into a knight, bishop, rook or queen.The rook turns into a cannon (the cannon moves like rook + knight)The bishop turns into an eagle (the eagle moves like bishop + knight)The knight turns into a general (the general moves like king+knight)

If the Black to move, they're making the mate in 4.
But now White to move.Only forward, like in the
Horde! Find the mate attack.

New update of our award-winning chess variant is live on iOS & Android.
The app is now a LOT more accessible for new players, with in-game help text and a basic AI to learn against.
Oh and if you get good, the 3rd annual World Championships are later this month online. ;)

Play 4 mate, and in the case of stalemate the remaining players share the points. Other than what I mentioned and the position in the picture the rules would be the same as in 3-player.

I was wondering if we could have a board editor for variants, so that we can create custom positions for the custom variants instead of being limited to the existing positions?

The power of hypnosis. You just have to place the king. Where will you place it? Of course on the h8.
