phpmZCUay.jpegI see there is a possible draw by repetition, so if you play Ke1 again I'll (probably) make a different move.

Yeh, Ke1 again, I'm looking for draw opportunities

vickalan

Two rooks and a queen are very strong, although I have a bunch of pawns. I wish you would let me advance one! Here's a try:

30...c6

Qe6+ (with your pawn still on c7 I would have forced repetition of moves)

vickalan

And repetition also possible if I now play Ke8. So:
31...Kc7

32...Qa1+

I can't see any win from here!! Maybe a perpetual check if you cooperate like before.
Draw???

Draw it be.

I won't hope for Ke2 Qxj1 Qd7#

I should have castled queen-side earlier towards my Guard - which is an excellent king defender!

Yey! I got a draw.
I wish I didn't lose my witch after my move 17 (and your witch helping in your attack)! I think it was a good game. Here's our score (games between you and me):
                win lose draw score
evertVB   1      0       1    1½
vickalan   0      1       1    ½
 
I'll keep watching your threads and if you think of another idea for a game let me know!!happy.png

Sure.

Superchess with the Angel and Joker.

Angel works the very same as my Witch, except that her influence on adjacent pieces is different: she makes adjacent friendly pieces immune so they cannot be captured anymore. The Angel herself can be captured though.

Joker: moves the same as the last piece moved by the opponent. (I move with a knight - your Joker is allowed to move like a knight, and so on.)

And please feel free to add some of your favourite pieces, guard or siege tower or anything. As for a board I like 10x8 or 10x10.

OK, I like the angel idea and the joker idea.
 
Ironbasicb: From the link it looks like Superchess is on 8 x 8 board - regular pieces are swapped with new pieces.
 
When playing with special pieces I prefer 10 x 8 board, so we have all the normal pieces, plus the added special ones. How about a setup as shown below (jokers have the "J", angels have the wings). There's also four guards near the corners. This might be a little more power compared to before because the guards are where pawns normally go. And with one move of a guard a rook can come out.

If it looks OK to you I'll start a new threadhappy.png

OK Great!

I set up a thread for our game (here).

This time I'll play white, and I made my first move. See you there.happy.png
