Ajax Falcon Chess
This page contains one or more presets for playing a game online with Game Courier, an online server for playing Chess variants by correspondence.
Ajax Falcon Chess is a variation of Ajax Chess on a 10x8 board with two Ajax Falcon drops.
The Ajax Falcon Chess Game Courier preset enforces all the rules (including en passant, castling, check, checkmate and stalemate).
The Falcons start off the board (on the B and W files), and can be played right from there (W1 or W2 for White, B7 or B8 for Black) to their initial squares just as a regular Game Courier move.
Example:
Algebraic Notation: 10.(Fb1) (Fg8)
Game Courier Notation: 10.F W1-b1 f B7-g8
The moves above would drop the White W1-Falcon to b1 (provided b1 was empty), and the Black B7-Falcon to g8 (provided g8 was empty).
