Hi Everyone, I just started a Youtube channel dedicated to ancient forms of chess, it is called Tamerlane Chess Club. The first two videos are up, which describe the game of Tamerlane Chess. Please feel free to watch and subscribe, I will be adding more every few days...

Hey, maybe one day! It's hard enough trying to learn 'normal' chess! :-)
