A few days ago was published article about new chess variant "Czech Chess"https://www.chess.cz/poznejte-novou-dimenzi-sachu/

Info about tournaments: http://czechtour.net/files/propozice/2020-2021/czechopen-games-2020-ce.pdf

Rules are very simple. The player on move has two options:

  1. Move with a piece (only rook, bishop, or knight) on the free field.
  2. Put pawn on the field under control of three his pieces (for example of the first move it is field a3 or h3). 

The winner is the player who put first his 8 pawns.

Today was announced another tournament: http://www.sachy-jaromer.cz/10-clanky/382-jaromersky-turck-open-turnaj-v-ceskem-sachu.html

 

BTW: World champion in Blitz Czech Chess is Czech player IM Pavel Čech (Čech is czech version of word Czech).

So how I understand it (from Google translate):
You play without King and Queen.
You start with pawns off the board.
Pieces don't capture eachother.
On your turn, you can either move one of your pieces, or place one of your own pawns on a square.
You are allowed to place a pawn on a square, when at least three of your own pieces are covering the square.
The aim is to be the first player with all pawns on the board.

Is that correct?

Yes. Sorry for my wrong previous English translation.
