The rules are simple:
1. The opponent chooses which piece you have to play, whereafter you are free to decide where it moves.
2. The chosen piece must have a legal move.
3. All else remains the same.
I just came up with it, but haven't played it yet. Anyway, it seems fun.
Sometimes I feel like a Pastor Of Muppets.
seems cool
Seems like most games would go 1. a3 a6 2. Ra2 Ra7 3. Ra1 Ra8 etc.
Good point. Maybe rule #4. You can't go back where you came from?
I like the simplest of rules. Any suggestions?
1.f3 is a great move too :)
This variant would only end with the literal death of a player.
Would be nice to try it out. We can just play a casual move. Piece to move given through chatting. Need to tell opponent which piece to move next before making your own move and pressing clock.
I wonder how does someone win this? For example in a King vs King + Queen endgame, the losing side always tells the King, and even if it does not, say it says K, then Q, then K again, it is impossible to win... It might be possible that such endgame is really rare in this variant but just saying...
@ChessWhiz Your comment made me literally lol.
