Chess on an Infinite Plane (vickalan - rychessmaster1)

This is a game of "Chess on an Infinite Plane" between vickalan (White) and rychessmaster1 (Black).

Rules:

The Pieces:

Black and White each have the following pieces (quantity and name):
1 king
1 queen
2 chancellors
2 rooks
2 bishops
2 knights
2 guards
2 hawks
24 pawns

All pieces move as in classical chess, with the "extra" three pieces moving as follows:

Chancellor (C) - Moves and captures as rook + knight.

Hawk (H) - Leaps exactly 2 or 3 squares in any orthogonal or diagonal direction. The leaping move means it can jump over other pieces.

Guard (G) - Moves and captures the same as a king but is not affected by check.

Pawns play the same and promote at the same rank as in classical chess. White pawns promote at rank 8, and black pawns promote at rank 1. Pawns can promote to chancellor, hawk, or guard in addition to queen, rook, bishop, or knight. Pawns may capture and be captured en passant with the same rules as in classical chess.

Board Setup:
Orange brackets identify the four "classical" corner squares (1,1), (1,8), (8,1), and (8,8).

There is no castling.

There is no fifty-move rule. Draws can only occur from stalemate, threefold repetition, agreement, or a proven case of insufficient material to force checkmate.

All other rules are the same as in classical chess.

Move Notation:
Numeric coordinates are used to identify piece locations as (file#, rank#). Parenthesis are used around each coordinate. Three examples of a move notation:
1) A rook moving from (8,4) to (1,4):
     R(8,4)-(1,4) or R(1,4)
2) A rook moving from (1,4) and capturing a piece on (0,4):
     R(1,4)x(0,4) or Rx(0,4)
3) A pawn advancing from (-1,7) to (-1,6):
     (-1,7)-(-1,6) or (-1,6)

Good luck Ry.😈
1.(5,4)

(This is game-1 of the 4-player tournament. Tournament winner plays @captaintugwash for the right to play for the World Champion crown).

2.(5,4)x(4,5)

I'm not the arbiter of that game, but it was mentioned in the Federation and I gave my opinion. When there is no totally clear proof of a time violation I always recommend that the game proceeds.

2.(5,4)x(4,5)...Qx(4,5)
3.N(3,3)

2.(5,4)x(4,5)...Qx(4,5)
3.N(3,3)

3.N(3,3)...Q(-13,5)
4.(4,4)

Ry, I hate to say this but typos are always binding if they are legal. I spent the time to study your move, and then decided my move. There is no "re-winding" if you aren't happy where you are. I added file and rank numbers at each 5th square where the board was extended.
3.N(3,3)...Q(-13,5)
4.(4,4)

Btw, I made a typo in my game against AsC14 which hurt me badly. I never recovered and lost about 50 moves later.

vickalan is using Paint to update diagrams. I don't think he is using it to analyse, he just updates diagrams with the current board.

Here is the board extended 10 more squares down:
3.N(3,3)...Q(-13,5)
4.(4,4)

5.H(8,-3)

I just have a suggestion, the chancellor, rook, bishop and queen movements NEED to be reduced, because then it'll be, playable

This is "infinite chess"😄

Just to make sure, are you moving the bishop on the white square to the 15th file? If so I'll extend the board up and right, and the bishop will be on (15,20). Just confirm, and I'll update the board.

Ok thanks. I'll be travelling the next few days. I hope to be back for this game within 3 days. Sorry for the delay.

I should be back home on Thursday, and then I hope to play faster.
4.(4,4)...Q(-13,-21)

Ry are you still here? (let me know if you need a zoomed-in view of the board).

ooooof
