Sorry if this has been suggested before.

I would like to have the option to play Live Chess with variants, such as these:

 

  • Dunsany's chess(orHorde chess): one side has standard chess pieces, and the other side has 32 pawns.
  • Endgame Chess(orThe Pawns Game): Both players start the game with only pawns and a king. Normalen passant, check, checkmate and pawn promotion rules apply.[6]
  • Handicap chess(orChess with odds): variations to equal chances of players with different strength.
  • Pawns game: White has no queen but eight additional pawns. The game was played by such old masters asLabourdonnais,DeschappellesandKieseritsky.[7]
  • Peasants' Revolt: by R.L. Frey (1947). White has a king and eight pawns (the peasants) against king, pawn and four knights by Black (the nobles).[8]
  • Weak!: White has usual pieces, Black has one king, seven knights and sixteen pawns. This game was played at Columbia University chess club in the 1960s.[9]

and especially this:

Double Chess: two full armies per side on a 12×16 board, the first to mate an enemy king wins. Pawns advance up to four steps on their first move. Capablanca found the game "remarkably interesting" and played a match with Maroczy.

No problem, please let me know what they think. :) Me and some friends who play on here would go crazy to be able to play with a double sized board, etc.
