Well, I have tried this game briefly. I have to say it seems better than you can figure at first view. I may be influenced because I always rate good or excellent other progresive variants, but I feel this variant more nice to play.

I dont think castling helps you much in this game. its better to keep the king in the middle, he may be your last warrior.

I consider this to be the most brilliant and thoughtful of all progressive variants, a creation of true chess genius.

I wonder whether a 'Conservative Moderate Progressive' variant would work, where the rules for checks also applied to captures, so that captures were limited to one per move, as with Leandro's Chess. [Correction: In Leandro's Chess, if one wishes to check or capture, that is the only move one is able to make.]

Thank you for your (too kind) comments.

I like your idea! If I'm interpreting it correctly: A capture may only occur on the last move of a turn.

I can add your variant on this page unless you'd like to make a new page for it.

Yes, Adrian, that would be the idea. That would be great if you'd add that variant to this page. Thanks.
