Bad Chess and Good Chess

Sort:
TheChessInfinity

Bad Chess:

Queens are replaced with counselors. Rooks are replaced with siege engines. Bishops are replaced with elephants and knights are replaced with camels. For pawns, there is no initial double step or en passant.

Good Chess:

Queens are replaced with amazons. Rooks are replaced with chancellors. Bishops are replaced with archbishops and knights are replaced with wildebeests.

Semi Chess:

For white, the chancellors replace the rooks, the wildebeests replace the knights, bishops are replaced with elephants while queens are replaced with counselors. For black, it's the reverse.

White: Chancellor, Wildebeest, Elephant, Counselor

Black: Siege Engine, Camel, Archbishop, Amazon

One thing I forgot that pawns in good chess can promote into kings, and checks and checkmates do not happen this time. These only happen when there is one king.

Is it a check if I fork all the kings? No?
