New Gamemode-- The Blockade

The game starts as standard chess but with a exeption that chesspieces can be captured only by blocking its all legit moves for example: to Capture the queen you must surround its all squars with atleast 1 piece of your own

Let me know what you think
These rules are not yet clear:
What about pawns? Which fields must be blocked, to capture them?
Is it possible, to capture more than one enemy piece in one move?
When does the game end? Checkmate like today, or when the king is surrounded?
What, if a piece is in part surrounded by own pieces. Will it be captured, because it has no legit move?
Pawns: are taken when the pawn has no avabile squares ex: white pawns at e4d5 and f5 so if black moves e7-e5 white's e4pawn will be blockaded and therefor captured.

yes there can be captured multiple pieces with 1 move if all of pawns squares are blocked ex: Blacks Nf6 Qg6 and if white moves pawn h5-h6 then h7 and g7 pawns will be blocked and captured.

Checkmate is made like in normal game when the piece that checkmates the king can't be blocked (captured)

Piece will only be captured when atleast 1 of enemy opponents pieces are blocking atleast one of the pieces squares

:)
Okay, my feeling is, that it will be nearly impossible to capture pieces, because you need many moves to surround a piece, and the defender will always have time to bail out.
the main idea is to checkmate opponent not capture his pieces i've playd this gamemode irl its very interesting
