2004-11-23Paul DeWitte UnverifiedExcellentI really like this applet. I'm going to recommend this variant to the students in my chess club as a great training variant. This game promotes aggressive openings, and, by randomly assigning royal stature to two pieces besides the king, this variant also forces a player to develop new opening strategies in order to protect those 'royal assets'.View [*]
