This is the chess variant created by J.R Capablanca in the 20's of the previous century to help getting rid of opening preparation and let our imagination become more enriched with new tactics and strategies. It introduces two pieces: The Archbishop = Bishop + Knight, and the Chancellor = Rook + Knight. The theatre is a 8x10 Board, with all the classic chess pieces + 2 pawns in front of the new pieces. Other Chess Variants (gothic chess, embassy chess etc) are related to Capablanca Chess and are just a derivative starting from a slightly different position of the Archbishop and Chancellor.
