<h3>Entry 2: Chaining Chess</h3> <p>Players start with the normal Chess setup, except that there are no Pawns. The remaining pieces move just like they do in Chess, except that they cannot capture. Since there is no capture, there is, of course, no Check or Checkmate. I don't know if it's even possible to get into a Stalemate situation or not, but if you are stupid enough to do it, you lose.</p> <p>A player wins by forming a chain from rank 1 to rank 8. One of the player's pieces must occupy rank 1, and another must occupy rank 8. The player wins, if he also has other pieces 'chaining' these two together. Two pieces are chained if either can 'cover' the other by the rules of normal Chess capture, and are within a range of 3.</p>
