Leandro's Chess. You may make a non-capturing move with each of your pieces in one turn, or make a normal capturing move. (8x8, Cells: 64) [All Comments] [Add Comment or Rating]That's an interesting game, but I agree that it would be more interesting with a chess set that has many more pieces and squares. But yes, otherwise very nice.

I was wondering if anyone knows of where to buy 10 x 10, 100 sq boards online? The only ones I have found are by Masters Games, but they are quite expensive.
If anyone has any links to suppliers of either plastic ones or wooden ones, all links would be much appreciated.

@ HG Muller: Please can you provide the web address for Royal Dutch Draughts Union as I cannot seem to find it. Many thanks.
Ah, ok - thanks. I'll work something out. Cheers.
Strange Chess. A large (12x12) chess variant. (12x12, Cells: 144) [All Comments] [Add Comment or Rating]@Danil: Not quite - but when inventing Trojan Chess, I did come up with an idea of having one extra Knight per player, with some extra ability thrown in, and which sits behind King and Queen, on the line between the D/E files. So occupying 2 squares in initial set up. It could be attacked on either square and move from either square.
But probably not even remotely close to what you are talking about.

Stalemate chess. Missing description (8x8, Cells: 64) [All Comments] [Add Comment or Rating]Heh, what a simple but very interesting twist to the standard game. Congratulations.
Rotorblades Fusion Chess. Played on a circular tiling on triangular cells. A further development of my previous game, Rotorblades Chess. (Cells: 150) [All Comments] [Add Comment or Rating]David Cannon: you need to remove the superfluous html table code in your latest message since it is causing the Cv page to screw up.
Recognized Chess Variants. Index page listing the variants we feel are most significant. (Recognized!)[All Comments] [Add Comment or Rating]I asked the same question about Seirawan Chess. I'm sure since they've started tournaments and all sorts now that it should be listed.
@Steven: I just buy two sets of Seirawan Chess. This gives you 2 Elephants, 2 Hawks, Extra pawns and extra rooks that you can turn upside down.
@Steven: It's still alive as far as I know...

European Chess. A multiplayer, different armies form of chess. (8x8, Cells: 64) [All Comments] [Add Comment or Rating]I agree that this is a good game and I expect quite playable. However I am confused why this game is the highest rated game, since not even Google's ever heard of it.
Rules have been updated with better clarification and downloadable PDF. Thanks and regards.
Chess with a Fool. Missing description (8x8, Cells: 64) [All Comments] [Add Comment or Rating]To save counting moves, or using awkward numbers, I'd make the rule that it must be dropped before you castle. Is that better?

Necromancer Chess. The Undead Walk. (8x8, Cells: 64) [All Comments] [Add Comment or Rating]Interesting game but confusing. If I had more time I'd look into it.

Thanks for updating the link, whoever did that. :)
Schada. A crossover between Chess and Draughts from the 1930's. (8x8, Cells: 64) [All Comments] [Add Comment or Rating]Well I've not actually played it so I can't rate it the highest - but - it seems very appealing and innovative. A more figurine-like set of pieces would be more attractive, but who knows maybe someone will revive and market it as such. Very nice read, thanks for posting!
Piececlopedia: Querquisite. A piece whose move changes depending on the file on which it starts its move.[All Comments] [Add Comment or Rating]Heh cool. I actually thought of exactly this idea a couple of years ago but didn't pursue any kind of write-up or game development for it. I guess the reason is I prefer pieces with an 'absolute' move, that is a move of its own domain and not one determined by external factors. But it is certainly another good piece. This and the Fool/Jester are together two very well paired pieces that would make interesting chess on a 100sq board.
