Any takers?

In bughouse chess, there are 2 teams of 2 players. And 2 boards, too. Teammates play on separate boards and opposite colors. When you capture a piece, it goes into your teammate's storehouse.Your teammate can, instead of making a normal move, put a piece on the board from the storehouse. Pieces can only be placed on vacant squares. Pawns may not be placed on the first and last rank. If a promoted pawn is captured, it becomes a pawn in the storehouse. The game ends as soon as anybody gets checkmated. So even if you are about to lose in one turn, but your teammate checkmates his/her opponent your team wins. The game will start as soon as we have 4 players ready to go. Post your move using algebraic notation. When placing a piece from the storehouse, use the @ symbol in your notation. For example to place a knight from the store house on d6, type N@d6. When I see a move posted I will update and flip the diagram. Also, the games are not simultaneous. Board A can be on move 20 while board B is on move 2. Please post something when you join so that I know. Make sure you track this topic so that you know when it is your move. Have fun!

This is a variant I invented. This might sound like a crazy idea, so here it goes: A player may choose, if they want to, to start a fire in a 2x2 grid instead of making a move. You can only do this once every 10 moves. Neither player could start a fire on the first move, and white may not start a fire on the second move, either. When someone starts a fire, it must be set in a 2x2 grid, and it can NOT be on both the d AND e files. It has to be all on the kingside or all on the queenside. When there is a fire, first there will be a fire alarm, telling the pieces to evacuate from that area. The fire alarm will be 4 moves long before the fire starts. Pretend you set a fire in this grid of squares. There will be a "fire alarm" for the next 4 moves. Then, the actual fire will start. Any piece that is in that area will be burnt. Optional Rule Extension: The pieces will then call the fire department. It takes 2 moves for the firetruck to arrive, and in those 2 moves, any piece that goes into that area or through that area will be burnt. If the fire is set on the kingside, the firetruck will come from the queenside, and if the fire in on the queenside, the truck will come from the kingside. Now, it takes another 2 moves for the firemen to extinguish the fire. The firetruck will be parked next to the fire. For example, if the fire is on the kingside, the firetruck will be parked on the 2 squares left (in white's point of view) of the fire. Now, any pieces that are in the place of the firetruck will be driven over. The firetruck will get in the way of the pieces for 2 moves while they are extinguishing the fire. Then, the firetruck leaves, and the board is normal. If the same square (not area) gets burnt 3 times in the game, it gets burnt completely. There will be a hole on that square, and any pieces that move onto the square or moves over the square (except the knight) will be lost. Those are pretty much all the rules to the game.

Here is my variant. Setup White gets to have the standard chess set while black has only a king and pawns. To compensate black is given two moves a turn. If black does a check on their first move of their turn, then they lose their second move. Black has the option of moving through check on their first move if they can move out of it on the second move. However, black cannot move their king into check of the white king. The pawn move still remains the same as in standard chess. En passant, capturing, promotion, and the two square first move are the same. Anybody up for a game? I will play as black.

This is a variant I thought up where there is one change. The king is stuck to his starting square. All checks must be blocked or the checking piece captured! With this sort of game, openings like the king's gambit, or others that leave the king hopelessly exposed all become obsolete

please?

OK, this is a new chess variant that (or at least I think) I invented. After each turn, the board turns 45 degrees clockwise. The peices then move in a rotated fashion. After the first rotation pawns move diagonal left, rooks move diagonally, and so on. Never played this before so may need tweaking.

Here's another extinction chess game.

Here is our game. I play as black.

The object of the game is to capture all of one type of your opponent's pieces (capture your opponent's king, queen, both rooks, both bishops, both knights, or all eight of your opponent's pawns). Your king could get captured, and you can promote into a king. If you promote your last pawn, you lose the game unless you make an extinction on that move. There is no "Check" or "Checkmate". You can castle out of check, through check, or into check.

Anybody want to play a game of Bongcloud chess? I will be white.

Here is our game. I play as white. 1.e4

Here is our game. I play as white. 1.Nf3

This is another variant I invented. It is exactly the same as regular chess, but with an extra peice. I call this the "Ditto." It starts at the center of the board and whenever any peice moves, it moves the same way. Eg,
