题目: Re: the shape of pawns
In my opinion, the rose border around the board already indicates that this game is quite different from regular chess. Changing the shape of the pawns is not really necessary.

Nothing will be changed.

Stalemates must be quite common. According to the games rules page, 10.42 % of games end in draws. Strange in such an unbalanced game...

a draw can be agreed upon...
doesn't necessarily have to be a stalemate

题目: Bug in pawn capture
In this game, http://brainking.com/game/ShowGame?g=482245, my pawn on h6 can't move. All of my other pieces with legal moves are clickable links, but this one is just a non-clickable image. It might be related to the fact that I can capture into the a column with that pawn.

题目: Re: Bug in pawn capture
I don't see any legal move for your h6-pawn. In fact, h5 is occupied, while a5 and g5 are both vacant. This prevents the pawn from moving forward or making a capture.

题目: Re: Bug in pawn capture
I was reading the letters as if I was white. It's my A6 pawn that I want to move, not the H6. Sorry about that.

Troy: The pawn cannot move because its move would expose your king to the check by the white bishop. These things are often not spotted in cylinder chess :-)

So it would. Thanks for pointing that out.

题目: opening book
Does someone know where I can find an opening book of loop chess (crazyhouse, Transferschach, or what it is called *;) )?

Thanks!
I have not found anything in the web...

There is a binary openning book for Sjeng engine (about 300Kb). I think it is compiled from a collection of Crazyhouse games played at FICS.

题目: my first experiences
i played some games in amazon chess and at first it seems to be mostly similar to chess (because most of my opponents wanted to exchange the amazons).
but against bratr i played the first game in which i really noticed the power of the amazons - with a funny mate! http://brainking.com/game/ArchivedGame?g=491106

HOME fellowship needs a player for cylinder chess so we can join the team tournement. Just ONE player! There must be someone who wants to join the tournament?!

Blizzards fellowship has the same request :-D

题目: more horde
personally i think that black shoudl get to start 2 more files of pawn up farther. evening things out. blacks pawns are jsut to slow in this game. there always 1-2 tempos behind. i think that the added 2 advanced files will even out things.

题目: En passant capture bug
I tried to make an en passant capture in http://brainking.com/game/ShowGame?g=502536&i=22. It sort of worked. My pawn went forward instead of diagonally, but my opponent still has his pawn.

题目: Re: En passant capture bug
Yup, looks like a bug to me (opponents pawn should have been removed).

Fencer should be able to fix it. You may want to send Fencer a message, or post about it in the Bug Tracker since I don't think Fencer reads all the boards every day.

If this is an ancient variant then its rules should be different. I don't know how was ancient indian chess but with old western chess rules I think this variant is more balanced.
The problem is black can proceed without giving any hole in its position. With old rules black has two holes (b7 and g7) at first and moving ahead without giving a hole to white needs ultimate cooperation of pieces.
I think the crowned chicken has real chances of survival , give it the power of modern Bishop also, then it will be a dragon :)

30. 十月 2004, 20:29:57

Please post it to the Bug Tracker if it's not already there.

题目: Re: Cylinder Majarajah Chess
Sorry for the late reply, but I just noticed that post :-)

The immediate problem with that game is this: The only reason the maharajah can mate itself is because of the presence of corners. Without corners, that possibility disappears (in other words, the maharajah cannot checkmate on a cylinder) :-)

please! with one more player in the fomento-beraun club team the cylinder chess team tournament can start! so please join our fellowship and our team!

In Cylinderchess many games start with b3 or/and g3,with the developing of the bishops and it seems that the best place for the king is in the middle,without castling. Comments?

votacommunista 
题目: Re: flank openings, castling
yes caissus. it seems that castling is not necessary in cylinder.
i saw some opponents opening with Na6/Nh6 - blocking bishop's lines a1-h6 and f1-a6.

1. 十一月 2004, 18:22:45
grenv 
Indeed, since there are no edges, castling is not the same advantage. In fact the rooks start connected, so castling doesn't even achieve that.

There are really no center squares either so tactics are much different than regular chess.

1. 十一月 2004, 18:24:56
Caissus 
Also interesting is the image of eternal rotating rook between a1 and h1 if there are no other pieces. Rotating without limitation! Nice :-)

题目: double piece attack
in one of my game against caissus (after 18. move of my opponent) i fall in a nice trap of douple piece attack (attacking my bishop b7 by the opponent's rook at h7 and threating mate at h7) - nice!

1. 十一月 2004, 19:40:39

since you moved already I think 18...Ba6 was best.

题目: Re:
slowly i am getting the feeling of the threatments of bishops over the edge, but not the pawns, yes, i often forget it! by the way: what about endgames in cylinder chess? can a queen only mate (suppose yes), rook (suppose no).

LOL. because no force to the edge. I'm not convinced a king queen vs king is a forced win either for that matter.

1. 十一月 2004, 19:55:22
grenv 
I take that back. You can edge the king over on the back rank with the queen until he's close enough to the king to force mate. I think.

1. 十一月 2004, 20:00:58
votacommunista 
题目: Re:
mating with queen is possible. you have to prevent the king going out over the edge. but i think, it makes the time to mate only longer. until the opponent's king is not at the last or first horizontal line he can escape one line back at the other side, ok.

I did. Number 186. Can you also fix the game, or do I need to play on down a pawn?

题目: draw king+rook-king
In my game against FriendJosh an endgame king+Rook-King occured. My opponent in my opinion defended correctly, staying with his king in the "centre" of "lefr/right" side of the board.
