Immune Chess

Play chess and learn immunology! For those who don't know the immune system, check out this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lXfEK8G8CUI. I made the variant in https://www.musketeerchess.net/tools/boardpainter.

It comes like this:

The Invaders (Black) always comes first.

All invaders move and capture the same way, one square sideways, forward or backward.

Pieces in the same color may not share places.

But the immune (white) pieces:

Complement System (designed like a castle) can move anywhere in the board (but with no blocking pieces), and they can't capture or be captured. 

Help surround the invaders.

Macrophages (designed as the Spider) move and capture 1 or 2 steps in any direction.

Destroy the invaders.

Helper T-cells (designed as the Corporals) move 1 or 2 steps forward, backwards or sideways. Can't capture.

Help the complement system block the enemies.

B-cells (designed like a boat) don't move, but they shoot the enemies forward with no pieces blocking. Shooting is when you just take your opponent's piece that you want to shoot off the board.

Kill the enemies fast.

Killer T-cells (designed like a bow and arrow) moves one step forward or backward and shoot the enemies straight forward or diagonally forward.

Help to destroy the invaders.

Basophils (designed as the Fortress) and Eosinophils (designed like a skull) move and capture like the invaders.

Collaborate other white pieces.

Mast Cell (designed as the Emperor) moves and captures 3 steps in any direction.

Help the long-ranged white pieces.

Long-ranged pieces can move more than 1 step, and short-ranged ones only move in 1 step.

Monocyte (designed like a vase and a flower) moves and captures like the King in Shogi (Japanese Chess). It will become a macrophage when it reaches the 9th rank, or further.

Help other white pieces kill faster when it becomes the 2nd macrophage.

Dendritic Cell (designed as a Citadel) can only capture in its first moves, and it captures like a macrophage. In its 10th capture, the Helper T-cells will move, and you must take the Dendritic Cell off the board.

White loses when he has no pieces left to destroy.

Black loses when his pieces are all destroyed.

When the dendritic cell is White's last piece remaining and its last capture is capturing the last invader, the game results in a draw.

Edit the board like that and have fun playing your first game of Immune Chess!

I forgot a thing

That is the Natural Killer Cell, which designed like a truck.

It moves 1 or 2 steps forward, back or sideways.

I forgot the next thing

Neutrophils (designed like a dish) move and capture like the invaders

I was thinking for an immune system game, and I made immune chess. And I also made a club of it, too. It's Immune Chess Federation.

Let's have a game between you and @HGMuller.

Enter your moves in the forums. 

You are white (the white blood cells) and he is black (the invaders).

Immune Chess Notation

M = Macrophage

N = Neutrophil

C = Complement

HT = Helper T

KT = Killer T (I call Cytotoxic T now)

D = Dendritic Cell

B = B-cell

BA = Basophil

E = Eosinophil

MA = Mast Cell

MO = Monocyte

NK = Natural Killer

- = Move

[ = Capture

+ = Shoot

^ = Promote (monocyte becomes macrophage)

* = Take off piece (take off the dendritic cell in its 10th capture)

When two pieces in the same kind can control a square, and one of it moves to the square, we write Piece-Column-Square. But if these pieces are in the same column, we write Piece-Row-Square.
