Mine Chess - New Variant Idea!

Sort:
SChess1248

Hey guys! It's ChessDudeCool1212. I have thought of a new variant idea called mine chess. 

So you know how some people in war put mines in the ocean to blow up enemy boats over them? It is the same idea, or pretty similar. It is regular chess, but there is one difference. There are 8 squares, 1/8 of the board, that are mine squares. These are random. If a piece lands on it, it is eliminated from the board. If a piece lands on it, the fact that it is a mine square will be hidden, and the players have to remember that square. Results the same as regular chess, but there is an additional way to win, if the opponent's king lands on a mine square. The king is gone and you win. This would only work if you are playing online chess, so no board battles like this. Let me know what you think!

Really a creative changehappy.png,but I wonder whether it is fair if one‘s queen is out just at the beginning?Maybe it can be better.

The mine squares are never on the starting squares, so that is not a problem. I should have specified that. Thanks for reminding me!

Maybe structure the algorithm so that the mines are only on 3-4-5-6 rank?

if not pieces are gonna get blown up at start of position 

but creative idea
