What if the Bishop and Knight positions were swapped !!

Like This :

Something like that would probably exist in Fischer 960 Imo.

No, I am pretty sure that that is not a position in Fischer 960

how can u be so sure?

It is a position in 960. The 960 refers to the 960 legal starting positions of the game - all configurations of pieces on the first rank excluding any with the king on a1 or h1 (a8 or h8 for black).

this is in Chess960 wow 

You could set up a custom challenge with this position and play one of your friends. See how it goes.

Hey balashukla0761, "what if" that set up from post #1 was called the balashukla variation? 😉

knights would be weird

that would be funny 😋

the English opening would probably be the most played opening in this position. 

c4 yeah, controls center opens bishop, what about the bird's opening ? (f4)

Fool's Mate would be a lot more difficult.

Yet another example of how great minds think alike:

Try something new fellas. Other modest genii have tried the same experiment.

What is the singular of genii, by the way?

birds opening would also be played. there may be an issue with the kings diagonal being opened up therefore there maybe an issue with f4. still probably the second most played.
