Bulldog with Witch: Waredude vs. JohnHS

Sort:

This is a game of Bulldog with Witch between myself, @JohnHS, and @waredude.

Game rules:
Board: 10 x 8 (see image below).
The pieces:
Guard (G) - Moves and captures like a king.

null

Witch (W) - The witch is transparent to friendly pieces, and she also makes all adjacent pieces (friend and foe) transparent to friendly pieces (but pieces are not transparent for the witch). The witch does not capture other pieces, but she can be captured. Although pieces are not transparent to the witch, she is very agile; she combines the movement of queen, knight, and can jump orthogonally and diagonally two squares. Transparency of a piece means that other pieces can move, attack, and capture right through the piece.

Board Setup:

null

Note the position of Black's king and queen are switched compared to classical chess. This is so the guard and witch are equal distance to each player's king and queen.

Castling:
The rules of castling are similar as in classical chess, however, with the board 10 squares wide, the king travels three squares rather than two. The rook finishes adjacent to the king. All squares between the king and the involved rook must be unoccupied, with the exception of the witch and pieces made transparent by the witch.

Misc: Pawns play the same as in classical chess. Pawns can promote to queen, rook, bishop, knight in addition to guard and witch. Promotions are unlimited (not restricted to pieces that have been captured).

Other rules of this game are identical with rules of classical chess.

I play white.  Good luck!

Waredude

JohnHS

I was editing from '(some other player) plays white', and forgot to change the verb.  lol.

I thought I responded to your move ... odd.  I'll have to cut back on these, I'm losing on time so much.

Waredude

we can continue the game unrated if you want.

JohnHS

Thanks, but no thanks. I'm really busy. right now.

Waredude
Ok.
Waredude
What about it?
Waredude
Yeah ok.
JohnHS

Waredude, we should do a rematch sometime.

 

JohnHS

Like how about now?  I challenge you to a rematch!

Waredude
I was hoping you would say that! I accept your rematch request!
JohnHS

OK.  I get white, as I was black in this game, so rematch should be with switched colors.  Also, I'm black in the majority of my games.

Provided that's fine with you?
