Subject: Multiplayer games?

Would it be possible to add 4-player chaturanga to the offerings on Brain King? I enjoy this game very much and think that others would, too. I personally prefer the no-dice variant and alliances between red and yellow, and black and green, as described in Gollon's modern version of the variant.

Dare I say that Yonin Shogi (4-player shogi) is even better?

I think the idea of games for four players like chaturanga is excellent!! Is the shogi game for four maybe too foreign, though? It would be very complex.

I have played chaturanga for four players and think that it would be a good game to add to BrainKing. Team play is a lot of fun.

There is a large chess variant for two players called Big Battle (see chessvariants.com) that is played on a 10x10 board that would be a great addition. Not only is it fast-paced (a surprise on the larger board) but well balanced, like Gothic Chess.

It is not a mere variation on the theme of Gothic Chess, though; and on the strength of that and the popularity of chess variants on the site, I think that it would be good to give it consideration.
