Siege Tower chess evertVB - foofooes

Sort:
evert823

This is a game of Siege Tower chess between evertVB and foofooes.

 

Siege Tower:

 

Moves and attacks the same as a pawn, except pieces FROM ITS OWN ARMY ONLY can pass over it in any direction.

If a Siege Tower reaches the 8th rank it can immediately move to any square in the first four ranks (but cannot capture a piece during this move).

This move can only be completed during the same move it reaches the 8th rank. (If this option is not taken,

the Siege Tower forfeits the right to do so later and therefore is stuck where it is). The Siege Tower does not promote to other pieces as pawns do. (worth 1 point?)

 

Guard:

 

Moves and captures like a king. But no other penalty if attacked or captured.

 

Originally invented by vickalan but named slightly different:

These rules state a time control of 3 days per move according to which I would now have won.

foofooes, can you let me know if you are still interested? Otherwise I will drop this game from my list so I don't keep checking it every day.

ilikewindmills, yes

Do you want the same rules as this thread? And do you agree with a time control of 3 days per move?

Joseph_Truelsons_Fan

it is 3 days per move?

Joseph_Truelsons_Fan

didn't say that in the rules, did it?
