+ .section
+ p A fun place to play chess variants in real time!
+ p But wait... what is a chess variant?
+ img(src="/images/Hexagonal_chess.svg")
+ p.
+ As suggested by the picture, a variant setup generally
+ looks more or less like a chessboard with regular pieces
+ (otherwise it's no longer a variant but a whole new game!).
+ p(style="font-style:italic;color:purple") However...
+ p Each variant has its own new rules, which can involve
+ ul
+ li * different pieces movements
+ li * different chessboard(s)
+ li * new pieces
+ li * moves side effects
+ li ...and so on
+ .section
+ p.
+ Example: imagine that a capture is an atomic explosion, wiping all adjacent squares
+ – except the pawns, which as cockroaches can resist this kind of event.
+ p Also state a goal: make the opponent's king explode.
+ p → Congrats, you defined Atomic chess! (Playable here)
+ .section
+ p(style="font-style:italic;color:purple") OK, this all sounds interesting, but why would that be fun?
+ p.
+ Because all games here start with a random setup: no more boring
+ openings memorization, you have to rely on your chess skills only :)
+ p Moreover, I claim that the chosen variants here are fun to play :P
+ p.
+ For informations about hundreds (if not thousands!) of variants, you
+ can visit the excellent #[a(href="https://www.chessvariants.com/") chessvariants] website.
