Hi everybody, I found this chess variant on internet, what do you think about It: www.guardianchess.com.

It’s playable on a 10x10 board with a really interesting new piece called guardian. He moves like a queen but only one or two squares at any direction.

Actually, I think it’s brand new, there’s no players so you have to invite someone to test it 🧐

You introduced one new piece (warder) which is basically a Queen ranging over a distance limited to 2 squares. The world of Chess variants is richer than that.

 Thank you for your answer my friend, I Know there are many chess variants, I have access to Google haha, I just wanted to know about the gameplay, the differencies, cause plenty of variants you can find are pretty different from the classic 8x8 chess but this one, the guardian chess keep the logic of the classic with one new piece...no need to learn to much to understand it just the one new piece happy.png

Maybe not the most exciting idea for a chess variant, but easy to understand and could be good for anyone who fancies something closer to the standard game. However I think it would be better on a 10x8 board (on 10x10 it's going to be a slow start to the game). Also maybe the king should move three squares when castling, rather than two. I quite like the fact that the new piece (the warder) isn't super powerful, unlike in some 10x10 or 10x8 variants which can be top heavy with powerful pieces.

Why are people calling the Guardian "(the warder)"?
