20-Move Chess

Following the example of my colleague from the UK, I will now proceed to give a variant that I call "20-move chess"

No pieces can be captured and no pawns can be moved. Every 20 moves, you can remove one of your opponents pawns.

Now white and black remove a pawn:

Oops, forgot to mention: After 10th move, PIECES (not pawns) CAN CAPTURE!

This is kind of different chess.

I should highlight to Bilbo21's example that if no piece can capture, Ng7 would not be mate regardless. Since the knight cannot capture the king, the king is therefore not under attack and is therefore not mated.

In that case, checkmate would never happen, and the game would eventually draw by repetition

Off topic.

This is a warning.

My apologies. Back to the topic.

Why knights not taking each other after 10th move in your diagram then?
