Custom Game Type

Hey All,

I'm wondering how I could set up a custom game type. I want to create a game called "Check is Mate" where any check counts as checkmate.

Anyone how I could do this?

Thanks
Chris

The only gamemode I know this is possible on is 4-player chess setup on chess.com.

You might be able to do this by setting up a three-check game in the board editor, but specify that two checks have already been done by each side. I'm not sure, but it's worth a look.

If the board editor cannot do it, then you should be able to figure out a way to do it in PGN.
