New Position Workshop / Testing Thread

Challenge me.

By glancing at the URL. the game is quite long. An odd number of ranks makes promotion unfair in an endgame. The first few moves are spend only moving sergeants.

Suggestions: Move the sergeants higher up on the board and remove some of them, make there be an even number of ranks or remove promotion, and maybe make pieces less powerful.

Me too

After a break, I've decided to try to make WoFs again. Any advice on this? https://www.chess.com/variants/custom/game/68054015

I think your game needs stronger pieces, but other than that, it seems great!

Btw if both of the bot kings get captured then the game won't end, so you should add bare piece rule.

There's an extremely low chance for that to happen, and players won't easily lose their pieces. The difference in points will determine the result of the game.

any suggestions before submission?

How does this position do for a WoF?

Random idea, likely a sequel for rowchess?

i made this, i call it "half-a-chess"

(please do not mind my color scheme choices. [gray = black, cyan = white])

the only flaw i see at the moment is the dabbaba-rider not being able to access the other half of the board but at the moment i don't know what piece is better for replacing the rook in this environment

Similar variants such as mini forest already exists.

It is not required for you to have a version of a rook in your variant, dababba-rider works fine as a defensive piece, as far as I can see.
