Should I return to this?

Huh, this is interesting. I think you should, but diversify the piece palette and other things. Otherwise, I could see this concept as a decent NCV.

Okay, @TimeVeteran I tried to remake it on a 12x12

https://www.chess.com/variants/custom/game/87007232/63/3 (without restricted crazyhouse)

https://www.chess.com/variants/custom/game/87007935/60/1 (with restricted crazyhouse)

Is this better, or should I do anything else?

The second row of pieces for both red and yellow are completely useless and are for defense, especially the ferz, consider buffing them.

1. WoFs no longer can be in a blitz tc, only bullet and hyperbullet, and even so this should be bullet.

2. The concept is cool, but it's just a tradefest until your opponent blunders his queen or runs out of time. Even so, it still is has originality issues because https://variants.world/posts/1837 (which is partially my variant) exists. You should try making the gameplay a lot more different.

I forgot about blitz not being allowed in WoFs lol

Anyways how can I improve this position while keeping kind of the same concept?

How is it? Any adjustments!

That URL links to the position editor. Post a screenshot of your position.

I have been reading forums and seen that not many variants are submitted lately!

That is for 2 reasons.

1) Submission has been moved to https://variants.world

2) The submission system is currently bugged.

This is what I see

I can guarantee you that you didn't make this.

Been testing this for several games with different variations, I think this concept is good but not finished yet and I need help balancing both sides. Keep in mind the 2 check and hill because many changes I tried to make affected the balance greatly.

Notes: Regicide, probably gonna be WoF
