Just last nite I played this variation for the first time. I went from confusion, to amusement, to having some really good games. I would be interested to hear from other enthusiast's for this type of chess play.

 I'm a big fan of this variation (though here in Serbia it is called 'Фишеров шах' - 'Fischer's chess'), so we could play a game or two! Laughing

I played 1. g3 we could play the same position in other game with you as white, or you can let the generator pick some other position!

1. g3 e5 2. Bg2 Bc5 3. Bxb7 Bxf2 4. Rf1 Bxg1 5. Rxg1 Nc6 6. Bxa8 Re6 7. b3 Nh6 8. Bb2 f6 9. h3 Qe8 10. Nc3 Qg6 11. 0-0-0
Black resigned.

Thank you Tamer for playing, it seems that chess960 is now playable by chess.com interface. Well done Erik! Laughing

 Ok I edited the board and moved Bg2.

 We could excange moves by notes, and track the moves by this thread! :)

Following on from Teshuvah - another vote for this. I find this variant does add to the original game without getting gimicky. A great leveller on the openings front which I believe was why Fischer invented it - as he was finding play stale with masters playing 20 rehearshed moves against each other.

It does level the playing field. Once the game starts the rest is up you, and the tactics you've learned thus far..At least that's the way I see it.

Awesome! I love this chess variant, it feels new and exciting every time you play, but there aren't many good places to play it online. Thanks Erik, I can't wait!
