I would like to introduce a new variant - called 'Borderline'.

It is a minimalistic version on a 7x7 board, without pawns, with only one king to capture, no capturing of opponent pieces. Rank 4 is the borderline, which must be crossed to attack the king. The pieces move according to FIDE rules.

Perhaps the variant is a bit too minimalistic, but it seems pleasantly playable.

I don't know if such a variant has been presented before. But I'm sure the community knows it.
