Ämne: Varying the Loopchess Rules
Two ideas for Loop-chess variation:

1. A wonderful idea would be to prevent pawns in Loop-chess from promoting normally. Instead you can pick an opponents piece on the board. The picked piece, e. g. a rook, is removed and the pawn is promoted to a rook. The opponent gets a pawn in the hand.
This brings the tactical idea of removing opposing pieces by promotion, yet carries the disadvantage of not being able to choose pieces for promotion the opponent doesn't control on the board.

2. The second idea is to prevent checkmate by Drop!
That makes good tactics more essential for attacking.

Have fun discussing this or not!

1 is possible, but would make a new variant. What happens if the opponent has only a king left?

I doubt the utility of (2), the situation should arrive only very rarely. I don't think I've ever had the situation.
