Someday I might want to try a different starting position. It does bother me a bit that the king is very exposed right at the start. (Even Martin said the same thing although he doesn't play infinite). It might also be good to introduce some way to castle. I think Tug has mentioned the same thing too. Let's discuss it more early next year.

Also Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all! I'm in Ohio and we got snow today!

I think this would be an interesting substitute for castling: either guard can move directly next to the king on its first move, as long as there are no pieces between them.

Yes, I think that's a really good idea. I might mention it later in the infinite chess club to see what others think. It might also be good to let the king jump over the guard, for possible even better protection.

If either @abstractcube or @KnockKnockItstheFBI wants to play Formation Chess (a type of infinite chess) check (((here))). I can mod.
