King to Bunker Leap

This page contains one or more presets for playing a game online with Game Courier, an online server for playing Chess variants by correspondence.

Each side beginning with white alternately setup each of their pieces one at a time on the back rank. The bishops must be set on opposite color, and there are no restrictions on king and rooks.

The two bunker positions for the king are on the b and g files. The king to bunker rule is best used in conjunction with modified Fischer Random Castling rules i.e. either side can either use the king to bunker leap or castle. more
