I've heard of non-edge variants of chess, but I hadn't read this specific page until just recently. The game seems interesting and might eliminate the usual "going for the center in the opening" strategy. Still, I can't help but wonder if the king might be tough to mate if there are no right and left edges. Can a knight, bishop and king mate the lone opponent king?
Maybe they should make a restriction on the king - he is restricted to the usual board edges perhaps?
