Ok, thanks, I always thought the starting position could be complete random
A question about Chess960
Sort:
No. There are limits to the randomness. (as CFO mentioned the King between the rooks allows castling... in a simpler than otherwise fashion). One way to think is how to set up with a die:
White bishop first, then Black bishop, then queen, two knights, and in the remaining three, you place the rooks on the outside and the king in the middle. Hope that helps!
Hello.
I have one question about Chess960.
In normal chess it's one light square bishop and one dark square bishop for white and the same for black.
But in 960 the pieces are on random squares. But my question is, can the bishops be on a square of the same color in Chess960?
Best regards
