Chess, but I sawed the board in half

Demi-Chess is a chess variant that is played using just the right half of the board. Every rule of chess still applies, and things get pretty interesting.

Now do the other side where you win when you capture the queen. Although it's probably prone to draws

it's probably VERY prone to draws tbh

@bestevil. 17 күн бұрын

Let players keep playing if they still have pawns then, as long as they can make a queen they haven't lost.

My brother and I would play this but we didn't want to omit any pieces so we used all of them. Having two rows of pawns starting out right in front of each other lead to a lot of pieces being captured fast

Now can you duplicate the chess board and merge it to the side?

@likky1 19 күн бұрын

You know it would be interesting if there was a format where you did this but knights can jump to the other board Rooks,bishops,queen could maybe do that too but not more than 1 space on the other board if they do?

@galiantus1354 18 күн бұрын

It would be interesting if you did a version where the other half of the board (with the queens) matters somehow. A couple ideas: - Kings and Queens can't leave their side of the board, but everything else can cross like normal. - Play both halves of the board simultaneously until a checkmate, stalemate, or draw happens on one side. However if the position of the whole board isn't a checkmate, stalemate, or draw, play continues like regular chess.

I'm kinda new here, and to chess meta. How are you able to move your pawn that many spaces forward in order to promote in a single move? Are there some turns in-between that I'm missing? 3:40

@GreenLemonGames 19 күн бұрын

I must have cut it out because I wasn't talking. It's usually fine because a couple of pieces change places during the jump-cut, but this time it looked confusing because my opponent shuffled his king around and ended up in the exact same spot after the cut

@fluffyking94 16 күн бұрын

@@GreenLemonGamesok that makes sense. I got really excited for a second there. "Pawns can do that?! That changes everything" lol

@braytongoodall2169 19 күн бұрын

Would like one with the other 4 pieces positioned on rank 2 with pawns on rank 3 (no double jump?). The rooks would be on opposite sides but different ranks. The queen starts in front of rook on the king's rank. Might be drawish since you've got 2 bishops on the same colour, an opposite colour of the opponent.

@GreenLemonGames 19 күн бұрын

I was considering a similar setup! My idea was RQKR on the first rank, NBBN on the second, then pawns on the 3rd. I wanted to use the existing setup though, at least for this video.

@braytongoodall2169 19 күн бұрын

@@GreenLemonGames Oh yeah that is a nice way to do it. I like the current set up since shares an elegant factor with Ed Trice's Gothic Chess: in Gothic Chess the leftmost chunk of the board and rightmost chunk are preserved, with the middle chunk differing from regular chess since the fairy pieces are beside the king. Hence RNBK and QBNR feel nice (maybe an invocation of the "processing fluency theory of aesthetic pleasure"). Other than differing bishop colours, your considered set up with the knights at the edges would make their first move more satisfying than if the knights started in the middle with bishops on the edges.
