Chess with Different Armies. Betza's classic variant where white and black play with different sets of pieces. (Recognized!)[All Comments] [Add Comment or Rating]In fact, I lost to Paulowich just that way to Half Duck of Colourbound Clobberers at the G.C. Logs here game ended 8.November.2004, a very early score. Paulowich said take back the last move and I said ''It's too Ralph Betza ridiculous not to end it here.'' You can see the exchange within in 8.Nov.2004 record under this very article at Game Courier logs, just commented by ''unknown'' 19.September about a dozen comments back. So it was checkmate on the fifth move, and I have always liked Half Duck. I notice even Chess Different Armies has 14 complete games in 6 years. If there were any serious enterprises of any kind around here, there would have been 14,000 complete games by now of something touted as important as CDA. Guaranteed the status quo will have the 4000 CVP games averaging 2-10 games played each by 2020, and guaranteed someone will think up another Half Duck variant.
