Scramble

Chess masters often complain that chess openings are very boring and predictable. This chess variant aims to solve that problem.  

Setup

Each player has 18 pieces.

The initial setup is an empty board. After placing all pieces on the board the setup should look like this, with Pawns in the centre and the other pieces all around the border:

1) Version 1; 

2) Version 2;

 

Pieces

Each player has 18 pieces (1 King, 4 Pawns, 4 Knights, 4 Bishops, 3 Rooks, and 2 Queens). 

Rules

Before starting the game players have to decide which version they want to play.
