What exactly does "capturing a Queen for free" entail? As in, if you capture your opponent's Queen without your own being recaptured during either your opponent's next move or within a number of subsequent moves after that, you'd win?

If so, this is almost indistinguishable from those chess games where a disappointed, begruntled player resigns after losing his/her Queen, or perhaps a Rook due to a blunder.

How bout just "first to lose their queen loses".

Well, you also have to consider that OP mentioned capturing a Queen for free. I think that was one of the main descriptors for his/her variant.

YEAH. That was it.

In positive news, I think if we added a few more descriptors and created a few more rules, it could potentially be a nicely interesting variant.

Until then, however, I'm going to pass. Since many my opponents and I sometimes/typically resign when we lunkeadedly lose our Queen. tongue.png
