New fantasy piece Idea

general + dababba?

no, it's a rU2

those pieces are not so bad of an idea to be honest.

I saw this joke in a gotham video for chat gbt vs stockfish and cat gbt moved a pawn like a knight.

horseman(2) can move like a pawn but once in the whole game the horseman can move like a knight

Guys, this is amazing. TO ADMINS: Please add this, I beg you, I am just 10 years old.

yeah, that's basically where it can capture

but it moves like a king

I think it's called withdrawing when you capture without actually moving there? if that's wrong, please let me know

Qilp is probably not going to add any new pieces any time soon as he has plenty other things to deal with

(also how is being 10 years old going to persuade them into adding pieces..?)

whoever makes a link only for them please

they was getting insane of this being official(oops it was me ago)

the admins may be on the chess.com team but they don't control chess.com

he's right how will that persuade them?

that is not my point

my point is that qilp is busy and will not add new pieces

king_pawn1234 meant that being 10 years old is irrelevant to try to persuade them (right?)

yes that is what I meant.

Time to bring back the admiral

7 points, moves like an alibaba and a general combined, but cannot step over bricks/its own pieces (or maybe I will change it now and just make it an alibaba + general)

God should be a 100-point ultrabounty, Pogo Stick should be a 30pts bounty or have something that is designed to beat it, and jester should be worth more as it stops your opponent in many cases from moving high-power pieces like the god, jester = 20pts???

royal bishop should be 7pts

Another funny piece idea I had in the past was a piece that could move to any square an amazon cannot move to in its position.

Wildebeest rider is very interesting due to the fact that if what you're mentioning is every possible move in one direction over multiple turns for wildebeest, the amount of available squares would increase for every step taken.

There is a variant on steam called chess ultimate, we can include some of those:

• Ninja: Moves or jumps upt 3 squares in any direction
• Mage: Can swap with any of your pieces
• Jester: Looks like king to opponent
• Bomb: If captures or gets captured destroys any piece next to it (Like in atomic)
• Prince: Moves twice if no captur eon first, moves like king
• Ghost: Opponent cant see the ghost unless it captures or gets captured or is next to king or jester of it swaps with mage
• Angel: Can attach to any of your pieces and if it is captured, piece goes back to square where angel started on( It started as just second life but they used angel on ninja to make too OP combo)
• Berserker: Starts moving like king, can get extra 1 square radius movement per capture
• Parasite: Becomes the first piece it captures
• Giant: Takes up 4 squares but moves and captureds one set of four squares orthogonally

my god those are confusing

what does mage actually DO? do you mean it can use another piece's movement, or that it physically swaps places with another piece, or something else?

Also, how would giant fit on the board?? The board would have to be AT LEAST 16 squares in length, and even then the board would be small.

(a few more questions) how would the parasite move? Actually, you didn't mention how a lot of pieces moved. could you be a little more clear on those?

(ahem) Anyways, cool ideas! I think the rest of them are interesting and might work well with the right ruleset/board/implementation.
