Subject: Re: Dark Chess + en passant = ?

grenv:
www.buho21.com is a spanish site which has live dark chess (they call it blind chess), i never really play it so I'm not sure what it does about the en passant rule or what sort of level the players there are. It also has atomic (with slightly different rules) and losers

Subject: Re: Atomic opening

grenv: Ive thought 3.h4 was one of the more risky lines for white, after:
1.Nf3 e5 2.Ng5 f5 3.h4 Nc6 4.c3 Nd4 5.cxd4 Bb4 6.Nc3 Nf6 when 7.Nf7 0-0! gives black some good play (although I still wouldn't touch 1...e5)
