Interface "Babaschess" is able to replay crazyhouse/loopchess pgn-games,but you have to change a little bit the pgnformat.

The k/r vs. k ending seems to be a speciality of chessFriendJosh : http://brainking.com/game/ArchivedGame?g=490665

and three ..:-)?

I have had an ending with king/rook (me) vs king and it was only draw :-(

Also interesting is the image of eternal rotating rook between a1 and h1 if there are no other pieces. Rotating without limitation! Nice :-)

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?

It is incredible, but this position with the rook/king vs. king ending is draw!

We have to verify all elementary endings!

Can you perhaps give an example for such an impregnable setup?

Why doesn`t Fencer balance this game? Does anybody know this? It could make this game more interesting.
For instance either by additional maharadjas or by my suggestion "Amazone chess" - on the board "other chessvariants".

You don`t know if your opponent has changed his setup.That`s why important for your plans can only be the actions of your opponent in the concrete game.

BBW,in chess you only can have a good attack or defence plan,if you can interpret the plan of your opponent.
Without to see your opponent`s position your efforts are completely senseless.

And that`s why we don`t play poker here at Bk or other games, which have to do with luck. The common standard of the board games is an equal position at the beginning.Otherwise Bk would change to a casino.
I have played a tournement with six games and four of them my opponents have lost positions before we have moved the first time.This cannot make sense.Okay you can play with this rules,but it is (for me) only an half and not a complete game.
I think the most players here see this in the same way.Look at the only little number of played games in the past in both variants.

Antichess - this game seems to be very analyzed and many variants are determined.

How,if we could have a variant like "Shuffle-antichess"?
The rules could be the same with the difference, that the pieces on the 1th/8th row are placed randomly.

have two big disadvantages :
1.Both games are starting in the middle of the game ,without an opening.
2.The constellation of the pieces with the following result of the game has to do with luck.

I suggest to change the rules in the following way:
In the first part of the game the pieces will be placed on the board alternately.Both players should can see the actions of their opponents.In screen chess only in the own half of the board,in crazy screen chess on the complete board.
Only if the last piece is placed the players can start to move (like in the boardgame "morris").
I think,with these rules the games can become more interesting, .

But no,he won one of these games with the white pieces !!.. against a player who has lost all his Brainking games except one :):)!

White wins always in the below described way,not regardless of the moves of each player of course,but sure if both parties are playing their best moves.

No chance for black,WhisperzQ!
The strategy for W is easy :He changes some pawns in the opening,gives three or four pieces for two pawns (each) and then he invades with queen and/or rook in Black`s position.From backwards he can beat B`s important pawns.
No problem for W,if he doesn`t play too bad :).

I think the original idea,to play with a maharadja is good.(Other names for this piece are "general" or "amazone")And there have been in the past some interesting suggestions to improve this variation to a balanced game, not only for children:).Btw we have the same situation in "Hordechess"!

No!

I have discovered that you can play this variant in real-time at the ICC,(http:// www.chessclub.com/) as 5,10 or 20 minutes game. But it is possible to play for free only as guest and without rating and name.
Even so it is a good training :).If someone wants to play such some short games please send me a private message.

I suggest to change the less played "Corner Chess" in the more public "Fischerrandom Chess". The new name is Chess 960 because of the 960 possible startpositions.
Rules are here : http://www.chessvariants.com/diffsetup.dir/fischer.html

Another suggestion: We play with the regular chesset (both sides) with the one exception:
The queen is changed to the maharajah.

To change the game for a better balance we can try to play with two Maharadjas one on a1 and one on h1?

If you calculate with pawns: Queen 9, both rooks 9,knight and bishop 3, and 8 pawns you need 38 Pawns for black then you have a balance.

Loop chess is a great chessvariant,which is played on several internetservers. The normal name of this variant is "Crazyhouse". The best if you use the knights and try to come near the king
