@crimlock I added Courier Chess as a casual game.
@Pava876Smart I added Check again as a casual game.
@ywq915 I added Fairyland III as a casual game. There is no Fairyland II so would you like for me to change the name of your game to Fairyland II?
@Player17896 Have you played any games from your position?
My reasoning for having Check again, and Fairyland III as casual games is that they both have some very powerful pieces, in a close quarters combat type of game, which could potentially give an overwhelming advantage to the player who goes first, so I want to make sure the first move advantage isn't too strong before making them rated.

I read that in Courier Chess, with the exception of the pawns in front of the Ferz and in front of the rooks, there was no moving two squares on the first move. So I adjusted the Courier Chess variant so that the pawns cannot move two squares on the first move, in order to make it more true to its medieval form.
