I want to second Atomic Chess

Symmetric Chess is the featured Chess variant for March, 2024.

Just noticed, the Recognized Variants of the Month table does not work with the dark theme.

Hi Daniel

Unrelated, I have issued you a personal invitation for a rules enforced 12x12 game of mine (Brawl Chess) that's been not much tested, and not played yet, in case you might have missed it, and wish to play.

🕸📝Fergus Duniho wrote on Thu, Mar 21 05:47 PM UTC in reply to Daniel Zacharias from 02:02 AM:

Okay, I fixed that.

Does anyone want to nominate or second any more games before the month is finished?

Though it probably won't get seconded in time for April, I think Dai Seireigi is worthy.

I second Elk Chess.

But, I think that for next month Grant Acedrex has an advance.

And for future months, I nominate Hexagonal (Glinski) chess.

I'll nominate Ajax Chess.

Grant Acedrex is now the featured variant for April, 2024.

I notice that Lev nominated Seireigi, so in addition to my nomination of its larger cousin (Dai Seireigi) I'll throw in a second for Seireigi for future features.

I second NRC & SoAC and nominate every variant I favorited that are qualified except of course my own variants which I shamelessly favorited.

Please use full names and links when nominating games, and please name every game you nominate within your comment so that nominations can be properly documented.

N-Relay Chess & Sort of Almost Chess.

I second Glinski's Hexagonal Chess. It is the textbook example of a hexagonal chess variant. If you want to learn how to play a hexagonal chess game, Glinski's Hexagonal Chess is a great place to start.

You must really like Dai Seireigi...I'm honestly quite surprised. Sure, I consider the Seireigi family my best set of works so far, but I didn't think anyone would be so quick to nominate Dai Seireigi. If anything, I thought Chu Seireigi would be nominated faster (second to normal Seireigi of course). That being said, I can definitely see the appeal, with the homages to the large historical Shogi variants and all.

Note to (other) Editors: While Dai Seireigi hasn't been played in its current, final form on Game Courier yet, it does have a recorded history of development versions being played on Game Courier. Whether this would make it eligible to be featured is up for debate.

I second Chak.

Oh, right. I was focused on updating the color schemes. I should exercise now, but I'll remember to do this soon.

Glinski's Hexagonal Chess is the featured variant for May, 2024.

I've made a rule enforcing preset for Opulent Lemurian Shatranj.
