What strange chess rules can you think up?
Sort:
top2pr I really didn't see the necessity to post an abusive remark there.
Blindfolded Airstrike Chess
Both players start the game while being blindfolded. As soon as the first players makes an incorrect move the other player can call out for an air strike (shout AIR STRIKE). Call in the bomber, give the correct coordinates and piece you want to target (e.g. Qd8), and that piece is bombed of the chessboard. You are not allowed to bomb the enemies King. Play continues with the player that was bombed.
If the player that called air strike, did so while no error was made by the opponent, the opponent has the possibility to call for a pre-emptive strike (shout FOR NARNIA). The opponent can remove one of your pieces for free and still have the move when play continues.

How about instead of promoting your pawn on the eighth rank, you have the option of just forcing your opponent to remove his queen.
What if if you can get your Queen to the eighth rank, you can promote it to a pawn?
Whatever!

The earliest precursor of modern chess is a game called chaturanga.
In early chess the moves of the pieces were:
- King: as now.
- Queen: one square diagonally, only.
- Bishop:
- In the version that went into Persia: two squares diagonally (no more or less), but could jump over a piece between
- In a version sometimes found in India in former times: two squares sideways or front-and-back (no more or less), but could jump over a piece between.
- In versions found in Southeast Asia: one square diagonally, or one square forwards.
- Knight: as now.
- Rook: as now.
- Pawn: one square forwards (not two), capturing one square diagonally forward; promoted to queen only.
Two Arab travelers each recorded a severe Indian chess rule against stalemate:
- A stalemated player thereby at once wins.
- A stalemated king can take one of the enemy pieces that would check the king if the king moves.

When I first learned chess, I thought the object was to capture ALL the opponent pieces, including the queen. Just like it is in checkers.

How about a game where all the rules are the same, but you cannot check the king unless you are checkmating the king.
How about when thier's an opencheck, then he move the piece or he touch it, then loss.Only in Boardgame!
Once per game, one piece can perform a HADOUKEN move, destroying all pieces, including itself, on its row or collumn(the performer of the HADOUKEN gets to choose whether row or collumn).
Trench Warfare:Rows 1,3,5 and 7 are called the Open Ground. Open Ground pieces may only capture pieces that are also on Open Ground OR on a Trench directly adjacent to them. Rows 2,4,6 and 8 are called the Trenches. Pieces in the Trench may only capture pieces in the same Trench as them OR on a row of Open Ground directly adjacent to their Trench.
Lovely ideas! Definitely worth a try - Brisket and Helltank. Herson's I didn't really understand.
Because in bordgame,we apply touch move for profesional player to avoid touching of every piece and for the player to think before they move. By the way ,it just only for imaginary rule.
You can also think what rule you want to apply for chess only and its only imaginary.

One variant I played sometimes was you put all pawns on the 4th and 5th ranks, and you're not allowed to take any pieces in the first 10 turns.
Ok!
Each player can make two consecutive moves, only once.
