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!

Hey everybody! I invented a new chess variant! It combines crazyhouse and bughouse! When you capture a piece, either you or your teammate can drop it. Anybody want to play?

This chess variant was invented by one of our members, Goatllama (hence the name of the variant.) The rules are just like normal chess, but you have a bigger board and 2 armies. The first one your opponent's kings must be captured. The remaining one is to be checkmated. That's pretty much it for the rules, unless Goatllama himself wants to add anything. Post your move using algebraic notation. The first post (this one) will have a move list and a picture of the board. Every time I see a new post, I will update the picture of the board and turn it so that the side who's turn it is comes up in front. Make sure you track this topic so that you know when it is your move. As soon as you join the game post something so that I know. The game will begin as soon as we have 2 people ready to go. Have fun! Players: white: chessmaniac5 black: GeniusKJ Move List:

Make sure you track this topic so that you know when it is your move. White goes first, then green, then black, and then red. Black and white are on team A and red is on team B with green. Teammates may not capture eachother's pieces. When you checkmate a king you can either take control of the army (beware: if one of the kings is checkmated or if both are attacked in one turn, you are out completely. Also if you do this, you do not recieve double turns.) or if are not a risk taker, you may leave the pieces inert (that means they do nothing). Post your move using algebraic notation. The first post (this one) will have a move list and a picture of the board. Every time I see a new post, I will update the picture of the board and turn it so that the side who's turn it is comes up in front. As soon as you join the game post something so that I know.

My idea for a variant. It is essentially Seirawan Chess, with a third new piece added, which moves as a queen plus knight. I can't decide how to name the new piece, I was thinking either "General" or "Heir" as in Heir to the King. The new piece is added just as the Hawk and Elephant are. Anyone want to play me a game? Beware I'll probably move pretty slowly.

this, I think, is a very cool variant. It's called half kreigspeil because you can see half of you r opponents peices, and can't see the other half. The half you can't see are the pawns, so that when you move one all you have to say is "I moved a pawn" and your opponent must guess what you moved. Anyone interested in playing?
I would be interested to see if this could work. After each player has moved, the board changes shape and all the peices coordinates are translated into coordinates for the new board shape. Some possible board shapes are: Regular board Infinity symbol shaped board Doughnut shaped board circular chessboard pacman chessboard (when you go off one end of the board you come out at the other end. Ei, the 9th rank is the 1st and the a file is the i file) cylandral chessboard (the a file is the i file) Spherical chess board (think of all the corners coming around and meeting at a point. Eg, a rook goes from a5 to a1, then continues to come out h1 going up the board to h4) Super complicated, but stops you from getting bored.
r u interested in omega chess? (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Omega_chess) then plz email DunneF@live.com and we can pla an over email omega chess game, because i am trying out this variant

Another neat idea I just had is that you have 2 mirror boards, and after each circulation of turns the mirror board that can be accessed swaps.... or maybe if there is a peice in one of the central squares you can access the second board but otherwise you can only access the first....
