I don't understand what exactly you mean by clan.
Massive new varaint

"I'm sooo confused how you think I see you as competiton....."
Did you want me to pull up your PM?
Do you want me to once again recap-describe your history with our work on variants?
You've become really good at manipulating, dodging and side-stepping, dude. I never said that you saw me as competition. Just that you are afraid of the 'competition'. (Quotes)

I figured you'd like the 3 clan one. Seeing it is the closest to the old AOC there has been in a while. Still fairly different. Just the closest in a while.
Not that I really want to play the dumbed down versions very much, at all my self. I can see them getting more love from players. That do not want to learn more after learning them.

Sorry LXIVC I did not see the littlke post, my bad. By clan I just mean set. I am useing 6 full sets.(well not all their pawns) to make all the pieces. I am calling each set a clan. Each clan or set. Has a rook class(more wazir based really). A bishop class (ferz based) & and knight class(staggered leapers based). Plus two royal pieces. I really shouldn't call them clans tho. When they are all part of the same theme, name wise. O' well.
I added a pic a while back, to the main post. Showing the six sets next to each other. Plus they are set that way, in the move list, as well.

See how good you are at manipulation, dude? You already know that one can't "prove" it with posts and quotes, since motivation can only be understood silently through intuition. No one would know about it but you and me, since people can't detect your motivations the way I can; because I, and no one else, is involved.
Whether you want to accept it or not, I know from deduction and simply intuition, gathered from
1 - your multiple months of resisting my suggestions to your original variation, which lasted for more than a year, only to rapidly create new variants every week after my announcing that I would be collaborating my such suggestions into a new variantion of itself
2 - The fact of you listing my variant buried amoung your multiple "new" ones, so that people reading my variant cannot see it in too different light than yours, not to mention posting diagrams of your variant's multiple pieces in my thread as to aid in scattering people's understand of my pieces
3 - The fact of your new variants all of the sudden having at least a few striking similarities to that of my own (The widening of the board, which, again, you resisted for so long until I at long last posted my variation; the concept of "clans", which I seem to assume was influenced by my piece groupings: pawn groups, Bishop groups, Knight groups, etc.)
4 - The fact of you seeming to be struck a nerve when I even mentioned "competition", attempting rashly to explain away in excess detail how it isn't true
, that my posting my variant has caused you to do this.
Try to explain it away all you want, dude. I'm just saying.
Back to chess, I already told you: I haven't learned all your pieces yet.

here is my board so far. Still need the normal set. Because the glass one is ugly. Plus the set with the emperor and regent. Make the boarder and a few other things.

Deleting your posts now so that people can't see what you said in response to my confrontation isn't going to help you; not against me, nor against CensoredReality's later shaming of your behavior.
Once again, the fact that I "make you laugh", coupled with your continuing attempt to come away with my allegedly being "emotional, is quite evident.
I hardly think it's "meaningless" that, coincidently, all these new variants popped up after my posting mine; that your father just happened to be sick and then got better as I posted my variant.
Wanna keep going?
Because validating assumption with assumption just does not make sense.
You can say what you want, dude. Unfortunately for you, the fact that you can't see that I can just as easily "get inside your head" is what's "making me laugh."

here is my board so far. Still need the normal set. Because the glass one is ugly. Plus the set with the emperor and regent. Make the boarder and a few other things.
Good save.

Here are the sets I am using. Not sure if those are the arangement. I want each of those sets to represent. I think it is the best suit tho. All horses are being modded. I show a pic of them when I figure it all out.

That's wonderful. No one cares tho. I do wish he would keep drama out of a chess forum, and stay on topic.

Once again, Acer calls me a "he".... *roll eyes*
It's funny you mentioned this. Being good online acquaintances that Acer and I are, he actually admitted to me quite unbashfully in facebook pm that he's a sociopath. xD xD
Acer, I'll play your variant, but again, for the 3rd time, I'm still learning/mastering your pieces and developing logical analysis of start position.
"In order to get in ones head. (not that I even understand how this subject came up."
You were the one who brought it up, not me. (In the post which you have now deleted. Again, manipulation.)

You have yet to give me a definative answer as to what sex you were born. So I just switch it up till you do. I deleted it because it does not relate to my game and is clutter, bullshit, no one cares to need to look through.....Also "See how good you are at manipulation, dude? " Was the first comment on munipulation. You wrote that......So no, you brought it up. Solely passed on the fact I am capable of doing it. I may be a sociopath, and have no conscience. Yet I never lie, ever. Honest, trust, respect and loyal are my greatest values. I go out of my way to help others. 100x that of the, average self rightous person. While not making stupid decisions passed on emotion. Also I am always happy. People can't upset me to easily. I enjoy if they are happy or angry equaly. So I'm glad that I am, and thanks for noticing.
Can you not just do that while playing the game? I have yet to play a game vs myself, that lasted more than an hour. I move fast. If I blunder a side. I take back 2 moves and see if I can do it better. Which I find is faster than thinking for 5 minutes staring. It will very quickly show you opening defences and offences. While developing logical analysis of start position.
I haven't even played vs my self many times. Been playing a young kid. Sadly they have no chance of winning. So I gave myself a 10 second move rule. While trying to do it in 5 as much as I can. Which has shown me a nice amount.
What I'm getting at is, just play. Don't overthink it. I will moves as fast as you. Who cares who wins the first two, three games. You can learn what you want fast. Even if through blunders. While remembering it with less effort. Plus finishing a game in under an hour. Is a lot more fun than 5-20. Just apply what you learned from the last game, to the next game. I will even let you take back moves. As long as you have not moved again before requeasting it. If it helps you to play me sooner, as well as hopefully move faster. Just play me. Playing myself or a young kid. Is not overly entertaining. I had more fun designing it.

The main thing to notice is the power of the cannon, archer, squire and arch decon at protecting against certain openings. Commonly abused(overly used) in FIDE chess. Also a lot of them can no longer be aplied with the queen locked behide two kings. Also that you can no longer control moves with check, or even really antisapate someone's next move as easily as FIDE chess. So over planing beyound a decent opening is not worth as much.
Learn all the pawn classes first moves. Slaves can go 4 ways(backwards). So can jacks and gambits. Slaves and gambits can leap or a near by piece. Gambits can not move without leaping one the first move orthodonally. (their normal diagonal move is unchanged) Unless they are capturing. So learn the slaves and gambits mainly.
Use edit postion and delete things around them while placing the other color next to them.(do not move the pawn class or you lose the first move) A far easier way to see is open the custom.dat and place a slave-s, pawn-p, jack-j, gambit-g, infintry-i, & officer-o. In the middle of the board. Then click them to see their movement.
So I made a 3 clan, 4 clan and 5 clan board. By simply removing a set in an order that works well. I was going to go down to 2 sets/clans. Just I can not remove to last two & have the game still work.
All use the same board and plaement. I just blacked out tiles. I'll post the main one for compairing.
