No-Retreating Chess. A varient where you can't retreat until you get to the last rank. (8x8, Cells: 64) [All Comments] [Add Comment or Rating]You mention that my Retreating Chess made you think of this variant. It's an interesting coincidence then that your game is very similar to my other variant, One Way Chess.
I apparently didn't notice your variant. However, it is not exactly the same. One-way chess, for example, doesn't have an extra winning condition.
This variant is not opposite to retreting chess. Opposite would be game, where pieces moves 1 forward to empty suare. Another interesting variant (i was thinking of this before): expect for moving from last rank, all pieces always must first move forward* to empty square, and when make normal move. This rule don't apply for pawns. Optional rule - pieces don't have to move 1 forward whenthere is another piece in front of them (it's optional bcause pieces, wich can be easily blocked is interesting, stalemate may be win for last moved player). * - another variant is moving backward instead forward (expect for first rank). Another idea: what if one of these variants plays against other?
