New Position Workshop / Testing Thread

I think i a original concept, but is very difficult to say if is balanced or not, the unique way is to test it.  

i have a new game, i have no idea if is a WoF or a NCV

This is team and self partner

The stalemated player lose 

The game is self partner, so there are two players and everyone play two times, a piece move and one king move. 

The enjoy is to get the hill with the blue or green; and we use the black and white pieces to prevent the opposite king get the KOTH and make way to our king. 

If a player dœsn't whant to play an king move, he can move the wazir at the edge. 

There are racing kings, but the last rank is teked up by transparent bricks, so we cant get it. But i put it to musn't black and white pieces to check kings, because we musn't check with racing king. In this game, the enjoy is get the hill or capture all the pieces of the opponent, not checkmate. 

So i ask help to determinate if is a Ncv or a wof. 

The actual name is kings progress. 

looks interesting, but it will be very slow and boring, also the only piece that can defend the light squares is the knight (the grasshopper could make its way to one with help from the knight, but it will take a while)

and is it a problem? 

Alfil and dabada are very weak pieces because they can go only on ¼ or ⅛ of squares on the board, they will have more influence if they are all on the same color, otherwise the game will be easily draw

But if the game is long, i think it will be a NCV

1. Why did you replace my name with @SPickwick

2. FYI you covered almost half the playing area with walls, alfil can go to basically 1/4 th the board and dababba can go to nearly half of it.

3. You should add at least one more piece (maybe an alfil that controls light squares, probably replace one of the current ones.)

4. The strategy is very linear

sorry, i didn't did it on purpose...

Why are you posting a position you think is stupid lol. It is too spammy

Mabe, if you put KOTH, sideways, petrified and stonewall is will be better

are there any problem with this variant?

get some testing games and submit it officially, the CGA team will review it

Crazyhouse is not on the main server yet ...

Crazyhouse is in the works and there are loads of bugs that need to be fixed before uploading

i think is not very original

I'm trying to change it a bit to remove the check opening.

Anyone recognize the wall pattern?

I feel like if the previous position have a problem, this one can replace.

Again, are there any problem with this variant?

(I updated the image in this comment)
