Subjekt: losers chess?
Is there loseres chess here? If there isnt, why not to include losers chess wich is a very popular chess variant? It is important to note that is a different variant than antichess (or suicide). In losers chess there is check. So you win when you got checkmated or stalemated or when you lose all your pieces, (but you cannot lose your king, because it ckant be taked.) See rules and some tactic ideas here: http://wiki.wildchess.org/wiki/index.php/Losers

I see your point. Take a look on facebook group. There are a bunch of kids playing it. There must not be so difficult.

Fencer:

"one player has less pieces (ergo, the disadvantage), then manages to capture some opponent's pieces and turn the advantage to own side, etc."

The counting begins again, in that case.

Yes, good idea. I think that there is some groups in facebook that could help.

I found this site to play on line: http://www.pathguy.com/chess/ThaiChss.htm. We can use it to figure it out.

Fencer:

The site says:

"Drawn Games:

Many games of makruk end in draws, and this is because of special rules in the endgame which permit the disadvantaged player to claim a draw in very peculiar, and sometimes rather complex, ways. "

This means that those special rules apply only when a player is in disadvantadge condition. If there is not such a player, the rules doesnt apply. That is what I interpret, tought I have never played. Better to verify it.

Fencer:

Accourding to: http://ancientchess.com/page/play-makruk.htm, the disadvantaged player is the player with the less powerfull group of pieces. Take a look on the site, it could help.

Subjekt: Makruk on BK!!!
What about Makruk or Thai Chess? It would be really nice to add it to BK, since we have already shogi (japanese chess), and xianqi (chinese chess), not to speak about go.

World Champion Vladimir Kramnik says about this variant: "Makruk Thai is more strategic than International Chess, [...] You have to plan your operations with total care since Makruk Thai can be compared to an anticipated endgame of International Chess."

Take a look of Kramnik playing makruk here:

Well! We are ready: a tourney with OLTI, Egzot, Staigi and me. :-) Hope it would be possible.

I wrote Caissus, to see if it is possible.

Maybe we can play a test tourney. We could play it with four players, to see what opinions result. OLTI27 could played, maybe Egzot, and me (shame that nabla cant play it). We would need another one.

Subjekt: New chess variant!
I would like to propose to add a new chess variant to the site. It is quite easy and it is really fun. I call it: "Atomic-x" or "Atomix".

You know, atomic is an explosive variant, cause, taking a piece is like let down a small bomb in the square whre the piece is taken: every piece one square arround disappears (with the exception for pawns).

Well Atomic-X chess is even a more explosive game. It is played with the same rules than Atomic Chess, but with this two additional rules:
1. when a piece is captured, not only disappear the pieces around the taken piece, but also the square in wich one the piece were taken. So, nobody can locate a piece in that square from now on.
2. Once a square has disappear (by some capture on it) no attacks are allowed trougth that square, neither a piece can pass trougth that square; i.e. if white takes Nc8, it will be impossible for black to do long castle (o-o-o), since rock can pass trougth c8 square.

That is all!

I think about this variant cause i used to play atomic chess. Atomic players can find it interesting, i guess.

What do u think about adding this new variant? :-)
