I have an idea...

Of Lichess-based site on Scala with chess variants on non-square boards. https://lishapes.org

Variants should be available on it:

  • Hexagonal Chess:
    • Glinski's
    • McCooey's
    • Shafran's
    • Koval's
  • Tri-chess (on triangles)
  • Pentagonal Chess
  • Irrational Chess
  • Accelerated Chess
  • Rocket Chess

And probably:

  • Crazy 38 Chess
  • Grande Acedrex
  • Metamachy
  • Horizons

There'll no bullets, rapids, etc. — no rating differences for time controls. Correspondence games are rated. No AI (like Stockfish or Fairy-Stockfish) currently planned.
