variant idea that has already been invented

Simple: It's called KNIGHTMATE. The king moves like a knight and the knight moves like a king.

nice.

but the royal piece is the king that moves like a knight no?

yes

1e4, I like that you love creating variants. So do I. Add me.

At a later date I'm gonna want to introduce you to something.

The only reason you can't do this in 4PC is because of the castling code which restricts basically everything

? And hi guys!

Cool! 

But makes checkmate a whole lot harder though and impossible without more than a few pieces.

Actually, any combination of 2 pieces (or a lone queen) can force checkmate.

A pawn and another pawn :0

well this would be checkmate
