You right. K vs K isn't draw

Can you please fix Giveaway Atomic chess (antichess/Atomic mixed)

The player that gets captured last should win not draw the other player if it comes down to the last 2 peices (as according to the rules of chess, stalemate is having 0 moves on your turn (your turn comes immidately after theirs and such you should win (like in 4 player chess games)). Please Fix this happy.png Thanks.

Here is an example game where white should be declared the winner: https://www.chess.com/variants/atomic-giveaway/game/15865600

It's a draw

Imo the logical result is a draw, because both players lost all their pieces on the same turn.

it depends on which win definition you take: If you say that getting stalemated is the win condition, it should be win. If win condition is getting talemated or losing allpieces( which is the same, exept in this very case) it should be draw 

spacebar

why does white stalemate before black? the pieces explode at the same time. after white made his move so if anything black 'stalemates' first.

Either way though, more important is if it would make the game much better if we changed the behavior. is it too easy to draw, or does it make the game more interesting because you need to find a way to win?

I played a game of Gothic petrified with someone, but it just went like unrated Gothic chess and not like Gothic petrified.

Some bug for developers to look into.

It's no Petrified. You forgot about Fatal Capture rule

spacebar

that game does not have fatal capture. petrified = fatal+stone. stonewall alone has no effect on 2player games otherwise (there are no dead pieces), it's more of a 4player thing))

MrXX2018 told me about it and Gothic petrified works fine when using Fatal Capture + Stonewall.

 

Here is a successful game of Gothic petrified that I have played today afternoon:

However that it is sad that interesting chess variants like Gothic antichess, Gothic atomic,
Gothic petrified, Gothic fog of war, Gothic king of the hill and Gothic three check cannot be
played as rated at www.chess.com website page, although that rating of two players appears
as they are in Gothic chess.

MrXX2018

It's not a bug, but something like it.

MrXX2018

One more. Where is my templates?

Oops yes, missed that, thank you.
