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.emphasis However... p Each variant has its own new rules, which can involve table.list-table tbody tr td * different pieces movements tr td * different chessboard(s) tr td * new pieces tr td * moves side effects tr td ...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.emphasis 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 - var wikipediaUrl = "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/" + "List_of_chess_variants#/media/File:Hexagonal_chess.svg"; p.
