Subject: Adding white pieces to Maharajah chess

Modified by Seravajan (4. March 2005, 07:59:27)

I considered to add 4 pawns and 2 gnus for white to the Maharajah Chess.

A gnu (sometime called wildebeast) is a compound piece of a knight (2/1 leaper) and a camel (3/1 leaper)

This still requires white to use its Maharajah for check mating black but it have at least some material to defend himself or to attack.
