The following was posted to Wikipedia article 'Chess variants' by
anonymous editor:

'...Super Knight: Starting position for white is the same as in chess.
Black gets 8 pawns, his King, and a knight ...the SuperKnight. The
SuperKnight checks like a regular knight, but it can move to ANY
unoccupied square or capture any of the opponent's pieces. The game
should be won by white every time but only if he keeps his pieces well
defended. The white rooks are not defendable so blacks first two moves are
usually to capture white's rooks.'

Does anybody heard about this variant?
