Subject: Re: Games for the Encyclopedia of Chess Variants

WhisperzQ: All variants played here ought to be covered. Variants where games are less likely to be included are the ones where it is most easy to get good games elsewhere, I would say Fischer Random, Xiangqi and Shogi. And in games where only the startposition is changed (like Fischer Random again), miniatures will probably be preferred, as long games will just look like normal chess.
