It is named after the game rules it is comprised of, however I had this template put together before the new game rule amalgamations were created, if there is a better name for it I do not know what it would be.

The idea is a giveaway variant that is based on bare piece rule, the strategy is quite unintuitive and while giveaway is a possible win condition generally you intend to control your opponents pieces and make them lose on bare piece. You do so optimally by making sure all their best attacking pieces are dead leaving only pawns or pieces that will require the enemy to defeat themselves.

Status: Declined

Reason: We're very excited about your submission! Interesting choice to improve the already existing version of this variant, but there are some concerns regarding this position that need. First off, black has a major advantage, however, the first few moves are quite forced as otherwise, white wins a majority of the time. The position is also quite drawish if the players deviate from the main lines. Because of this, there is a lack of move and strategy variety, and overall the variant is a bit beginner unfriendly because of this.

Ok now it has been brought to my attention that is correct, essentially this template is already submitted, though not quite. I believe my version is somewhat better as it contains any capture and minor details to make it more fair. Functionally they are different as any capture changes it.

Again I don't have a better name for it now and perhaps the topic should just be deleted.
