Nice to see a game with the Locust in it and it's a great idea too, well done.

It's not clear from the rules how the Locusts enter the game.

I was wondering if it's possible to add another option when selecting pieces from a certain set of pieces, so that we can only have the selected pieces grouped together. This would be great because I need to do more game simulations for Territorial Chess, and it is time consuming to scroll all the way down to find the Stones. If it's not possible, no problem.

The date no doubt has something to do with it. :-)))

Probably. It looks like a joke, but I think it's for real. Either way, it's a very sick decision. 

We might need a petition to stop politicizing chess.

We don't want to see chess turning into yet another public circus.

Life, the Universe and Everything. 42-square double-move variant with unusual pieces, inspired by Douglas Adams' fiction. (6x7, Cells: 42) [All Comments] [Add Comment or Rating]

If "the answer to everything is 42", the author refuses to further explain his reason for choosing such a number.

It was for comedic effect, and given that he is dead, he is not really refusing to explain anything.

He had the chance to do it in his book, but he didn't. And it wasn't for "comedic effect". He choose that exact number for a reason, and that particular reason can be found in a certain book written some 2000 years ago. These people know what they are doing. 

I, myself, wanted to be a science-fiction writer at a certain point, and I understand pretty well the reason behind these seemingly random symbols.

Life, the Universe and Everything is a Chess variant inspired by the works of the late Douglas Adams. It is a double-move variant with unusual pieces on a board of (of course) 42-squares.

A game with a pretentious title that adds nothing to chess. I don't care how famous the author was. If "the answer to everything is 42", the author refuses to further explain his reason for choosing such a number. 

Of course, the elites know what 42 really means, and are terrified.
