Well, that´s right, I have not known that this idea was first thought by
Ralph Betza. The game play is very nice, I have tried it yesterday night
against my son. Ralph, it is a very interesting game. Excuse me if I were
confused and I have show the idea without an author. All the credit is
yours!.

Roberto, are you talking about Ralph Betza's game <a href='../large.dir/secretagent.html'>Secret Agent</a>? If so, we already have a page for it <a href='../large.dir/secretagent.html'>here</a>.

This is a very simple although interesting variant. The two bishops and
Knights of each bands are numbered 1 or 2. At the begining of the game,
each player annotates in a paper which of the two enemy Bishops or Knights
is the player´s Secret Agent (only one enemy piece). In every moment of
the game, the player may, as a move, change the color of the Secret Agent
and move it in the same turn, and the enemy piece changes to friend piece
for the rest of the game. Try it!
