I ( probably ) discovered a new variant and named it Spider Chess.
Board is same, rules are same, but Knights can also move anywhere near them ( like a King ). This makes all the strategy different from Orthodox Chess. ( for example, 1.e4 Nf6 2.e5 is not possible because the pawn is hanging. Instead, white can play 2. Nf3 . )
Who wants to play this variant in this forum ?
You have 14 days to respond ( after you accept to play. )
I start: 1.e4.

I respect and encourage your attempt to make a new chess variant, but i really don't understand what do you mean by saying knights can "also move anywhere near them (like a king)". Can you explain that better?

For example: 1 e4 Nf6 2 e5 Nxe5
or 1 f4 d5 2 Nf2

That would be an interesting new piece to play with. I wonder if that king-knight combo would be stronger than a rook.

Made me laugh with that one :-)
So, if i got it right, "knight" combines movements of knight and king? If so, that variant already exists.
