Second Alice Chess Game

Avatar of oinquarki

Idea from Sahist4, rules from chessvariants.com.

The standard game of Alice Chess is played using two boards, A and B. All pieces move as in standard chess. The normal array is on board A; board B starts empty. The rules are very simple. In turn, each player makes a single move on either board following these three rules:

  1. A move must be legal on the board where it is played.
  2. A piece can only move or capture if the corresponding destination square on the other board is vacant.
  3. After moving, the piece is transferred to the corresponding square on the other board.

Post your move using algebraic notation. The first post (this one) will have a move list and a picture of the board. Every time I see a new post, I will update the picture of the board and turn it so that the side who's turn it is comes up in front. Make sure you track this topic so that you know when it is your move. As soon as you join the game post something so that I know. The game will begin as soon as we have 2 people ready to go. Have fun!Smile

 The board editor won't let me turn it because it's an illegal position. (no kings)
