Game Courier supports many different games. Here is one picked at random:
Elk Chess (with Scorpions) - Poisonous Scorpion pawns combined with the restive Elk, that changes with the colour of the square.

Chess-Draughts

If you had a Java-capable browser, you could play Chess-Draughts here.
Keys "s"=save "l"=load "b"=back once

Mannis Charosh, 1946. Captures are mandatory, and a unit which can continue capturing must do so on the same turn. It is listed in Pritchard's handbook but I agree with commentators that it is unplayable as a game. Instead, it is a theme for problematists.

I agree. The 'game' is listed in Pritchard.

2004-08-18Ian Goth UnverifiedPoorChess pieces are just too maneuverable for multiple captures in one turn. It might be a better game (at least it would be a game) if only one or two captures were allowed per move.View [*]
2004-07-21Uwe Wiedemann UnverifiedPoorAfter White c3 and White Db3 Black is without any chance. Not really a game.View [*]
