in June 16th, 2009 @ 21:47It’s like any other chess game, but with much more firepower. I also suspect the kings can’t castle, there being no rooks for the purpose.

in June 17th, 2009 @ 09:15That’s what Turbo Chess is. It’s just a variation on normal chess.

in June 17th, 2009 @ 10:02By the way, don’t bother to ask anyone off the blog about Turbo Chess. I invented it myself.
Our chess software allows us to customize the board with many different arrangements of standard pieces. If you want to play a game with knights and bishops reversed, or with all knights, you can. I’m not sure whether it lets you play with no pawns, but we could try.

in June 17th, 2009 @ 10:58Now the question is if the game will go faster, due to pieces being more mobile, or if the game goes slower, because there are better chances to block and put the opponent in check.

in June 17th, 2009 @ 11:06I think it’ll go faster. Usually, players are reluctant to trade because they fear they won’t have enough attack force left. This way, they will. I think this game will end in a draw.

in June 20th, 2009 @ 17:409.1.1.1.1 – On Chatterbox? Some new person uses bad grammar and spelling and punctuation and them someone else comes on and, er, corrects that person, and the person is never heard from again. Okay, PLEASE don’t get angry at me, but it gets me really annoyed on the Chatterbox AND the MuseBlog.

in June 21st, 2009 @ 20:56an old saying; Lead with the king, or how will his subordinates follow? youcan win with a king in front, but the moves are very complicated, but then you surely win.

RoseQuartz
in July 8th, 2009 @ 10:01Turbo, please. I’ve got regular chess with Piggy (although that will probably be over soon).
A board full of bishops would be interesting, too… somewhat like checkers?
