New Position Workshop / Testing Thread

I meant no king on the board. It might not be a practical change.

Then why would you promote? I'm not going to overcomplicate this and add a hill.

If folks could give me feedback, here or directly, I'd greatly appreciate it. It's my first attempt on a WIP; constructive criticism is what I'm looking for, here.

I'm not sure I understand how to get one, sorry.

Yeah, I did.

Play a game of it and post the URL to the game here.

I don't know anyone on the site, yet, to ask to play with. I just got here yesterday.

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!
