I inventend this variant when read about american chess: there are very
interesting piece - missle! And it's sad  what it's not used in any game,
expect american chess self...
Each player starts with same pieces on board as in FIDE chess (but not in
same position) and with 2 missles in reserve. I made another positions to
make all pawns protected by  pieces ELSE THAN KING. If not change position
of king and queen, there are 4 possible positions. Here are description of
first two:
king and queen are sorrounded by bishop and knight. There are another
bishop adjecent to first and rook adjesent to knight. Second knight
adjecent to rook and rook adjecent to second bishop. In this diagram white
chosen one position, and black chosen another position:

In other two positions knights stays in same cells as first two, and there
is still rook between them. Another rook is ajecent to queen or king. Here
is diagram of that two:

All positions have advantages and disvantages.
Now, about missle:
instead of turn, you can put it in any free square of your first rank (like
in most of other chess variants with reserve).
Missle can move and capture ABSOLUTELY to any square, expect for
opponent's first rank. It's strongest possible piece, wich captures only
by replacement and occupy one square.
I just played this game, it's pretty intersting.
And also ihave idea for unusal shape for board (i did'nt invent game for
this board, but i hope, that someone experienced chess variant inventor
will take my idea and will make playable game: let's make chess, played on
Rubik's cube!
