When you assign new abilities to standard pieces, it comes down to inventing new pieces but failing to give them new names. A Knight is a Knight, and a piece moving like a pawn or Knight is not anymore a Knight.

I agree. The pieces have to move normally or else you are not using standard pieces.
For example, the bishop can travel anywhere diagonally, but cannot jump over pieces. That's normal chess.
Ok then.

Are you joining the contest??
Capture the Flag: get a piece to your opponent s 8th rank. And bring it back safely. If a piece containing a flag holder gets captured, the flag is on that square. Either side can pick up .
Sideways Chess:
The board is sideways, pawns move sideways, but the promotion line is still the 8th rank, the top of the board...
@evert823
You can choose one of the 2 variants. Each person can only choose 1.
@aidanb1 @HolographWars @togepi2468
Those are all good variants, but what is the size of the board? Normal chess board?
OK, I submit this:
Contageous-Queen Chess:
Normal FIDE rules apply, except for these two modifications / additions:
1) A piece other than King that captures a Queen turns into a Queen (of its own color) at the end of its move. (Like a promotion.)
2) A Pawn reaching last rank can only promote to Rook, Bishop or Knight.
Really bad chess!
