Capture chess: two players with normal armies, the player that capture any piece wins. (I believe this is a white victory)
Anti-capture chess: two players with normal armies, the player that has any piece captured wins. Capture is mandatory.
One-check and two-check chess: You guys can guess the rules..
lol, 1 check chess would not be allowed, because it would always be white win.
All of these are terrible ideas.
All of these are so simple that it could be memorizable, so nope.
I would actually like to see crazyhouse on Lichess. Great fun !
(Fics, freechess has it).
white wins 1 check chess by force after 1. Nc3, I imagine 2+ would give white a significant advantage, it would probably be forced win as well
@XieDanke,
Extinction chess sounds like fun.
#7 Would you please elaborate how 1.Nc3 is a forced win in 1-check? Also if 2-check gives white a significant advantage, what about 3-check? (I have never played that before so it sounds stupid..)
I will answer.
1. Nc3 is a forced win if only 1 check is required, because after black moves, white plays Nd5 or Nb5, threatening check in one move, and if black plays c6 to prevent Nd5/Nb5, then Ne4 and theres no way to prevent a check on d6 or f6. Nc3/Nc6 is often played in 3-check, but it's not as strong because you have to sacrifice the knight for a check.
2. Three-checks does give white an advantage larger than in standard chess, which is why one can't choose white when creating a game, only black or random.
