Subjekt: Re: Gothic Chess Review
I would like to thank Pawnchucker for the kind words. Had I known who Paul was when I first started playing, and that he had access to GCR, I certainly would have embarked on a different opening plan in our game :)

I am in the process of sifting through some of the old GCR issues and making the material available online. There are some other interesting items presented here as well. Here is what is up and running so far:

A discussion on the evolution of chess, including some interesting tidbits about the early days of Gothic Chess.

Why Change Chess?

An interesting attacking game, showing the hairline that separates over aggression and proper defense. Ending with an Archbishop sacrifice and a nice combination.

Game of The Month

One of the first strategic notions I uncovered early on was that a Chancellor + Bishop attack could take every piece off of the board. Here is a discourse on this lesson, ported directly from GCR.

The Chancellor's Vortex

A photo gallery from the year 2000 Championship, our largest over-the-board tournament ever. Hopefully many more events will be hosted in the future!

National Championship 2000

I will gradually bring more items online, especially if I start computing database results for endgames.

That's all for now.
