New variant idea

When i was a kid i was initially taught some different rules The pieces are same . The differences were:

• Pawns can only move 1 square.
• No castling but the king can also move like a knight until he is checked.
• The promotion was according to file for example knight's pawn would promote to knight d pawn to queen and e pawn could promote to anything.

I think it was also 3 check or something but i can't remeber.

I like the idea

This would make endgames much more interesting with the new types of promoting.
Also, no-castling chess exists, but the king moving like a knight also might be cool in the endgame, you might have to try and not get checked until then. 

tbh, I don't like pawns moving only one square that much, but it might be interesting.

that does sound good. I like the idea of the king being more powerful than it currently is.

This ideas seems very unique! I think the idea of the 3 checks would be crazy fun there would be many theory's if this was added +1 (: .
