Avatar of talliholic

Many times I have played horde chess black wins and white wins with at least 1 blunder from black.

What do you think ??

Vote your opinions and You vote like this:

If you vote that black is indeed winning type "B"

But if you vote that White wins with his massive pawn army then type "W"

The color that gets the most votes wins!

Where do you mean? lichess computer? It does not understand anything. I wouldn't use computer to analyze Horde, except maybe late middlegames where you just miss a forced win

yeah... lichess computer depth is so high that it starts to be inpricise and sadly you can't put the position in chess.com analysis sad.png 

 

Also for the developers of variants, PLEASE ADD AN ANALYSIS FOR CERTAIN MODES

not only regular chess but crazyhouse, bughouse, atomic, HORDE CHESS, etc.

and more precise than Lichess analysis

Draws are possible in Horde Chess as if white manages to promote to a queen, but black captures everything but the queen, then unless black has a bunch of pieces, trapping the queen can be impossible without white making a mistake.  So it could be a draw.

+1,3 for white. Stockfish 12, depth 48. It's not so much

As a relatively strong Horde player (albeit continuing to learn from the game everyday), the idea of voting for which color is stronger, is really silly to me. Black wins in the start position...

not in 30 seconds...
