Kjempe Chess. A large variant that hopefully is easy to get into. (12x12, Cells: 144) [All Comments] [Add Comment or Rating]

Big changes to this game.

I changed the moves of the Kjempe and Custodian to give them a more realistic ability to participate in an attack. They are now both supposedly worth as much as a rook.

I also changed the initial position to avoid the bishops-pointing-at-rooks problem.

It seems the game has become a bit sharper with these changes, but hopefully not too much.
