Petrified...

When u capture, that pc is frozen. So if u capture everything everything is frozen. So kings can’t capture. There is something abt this that makes me not like this new variant...idk

I really like petrified, but it is too easy to draw if you want. I suggest that the kings cannot touch, this may make it more fun

I played this and it became a totally stale draw, my opponent might have tried to flag but maybe 50 move rule would have kicked in before that happened and in any case we agreed the draw.

I think we should change something to make it more interesting.

It's a bit like atomic, and maybe we could add something special for pawns? Like, pawns  don't die when they capture.

Another option would be a different starting position.

Good idea, I also suggested to add atomic. My idea is like if you capture a piece any wall/piece within a 1 square radius will be blown up and the square the piece was captured on will leave a wall.

petrified atomic?
