Lazer Chess: Rooks can go from one end of the board to the other,wiping out all pieces in its path.

Royalty Chess: Pawns have the Queen's powers, the queens have the Knights abilities and the knights have the bishops powers and the King canonly make the same moves that the original pawns could make.

I like the Lazer Chess!

Yes, wk, this, though funny, was Absolutely posted in the wrong thread!  And now you see you've started an argument on a completely tangential subject.  So you need to Go to your Room, and just Think about what you've done.  No arguments.  You can come out when you're ready to apologize.

DEATH TO THE OPPONENT:

if a player is hoplessley lost, he/she may challenge their opponent to a duel where they may fire 5 bullets. The person alive wins the duel, the match and all of the other person's belongings.

THE POWER PUNCH:

If a player gat's checkmated, he can use the power punch to capture the piece that is checkmating him, even if the piece is protected, and then they go back to the square it was before it did the power punch.

I dont know if this is true, but i heard that once a russian grandmaster around the 1700 century. He was so annoyed about the lack of details mentioned in the chess rulebook about the promoting pawn.
Only that you could promote it to any other piece you wanted to, except to a new king.

So he created this puzzle to make them change this rule,
Shortly after the rule was changed.

 Here is the puzzle, and the task is easy.

White to mate in ONE!

Can anyone guess what spesific rule im talking about?

Promoting the pawn to a piece of the opposite color. In this case particular promoting it to a black knight, check mate.

Well spotted :) Promoting it to a black knight gives mate in one  :))

1. Use a doubling cube like in backgammon.  If you accept a double and lose it counts as two games.  If you've accepted a double you can double it making the game worth 4 points and so on.  Etc. Might cut down on some lengthier games.

2. Pawn chains can move in lock step like a phalanx charging across the board.

I think we should adopt the off side rule in chess. You can only check if there is at least one piece defending between you and your opponents king. Tongue Out
