Your description beyond that is a bit muddy; you describe it as leaping to every other space, so it'd be more like [F?DD][W?AA].

To every second space (read more attentively). But, well, it's possible to remake its name.

As for myself, I’m not even sure this is a chess variant. Although it uses Chess equipment, it seems to be a very different sort of game than chess.

Though it’s rather good (at least at first glance). Idea is very interesting.

Can you add Cburnett theme mentioned above? I've asked the guy who drawn most of these images (BTW he's Dan Lee aka CouchTomato87, who has published his variants here), and he permitted. Other are or FIDE Chess pieces, which are under CC-BY-SA 3.0 (original C.M.L.Burnett pieces), or images modified by me. Is it enough for you?

One left note: If you’ll make Kirin-based Rose, what piece can be in the center of all its eight circles? And which piece is in center of second piece’s Rose?)


Diceroller is Fire wrote on Mon, Dec 25, 2023 07:43 PM UTC in reply to Bob Greenwade from 07:20 PM:

I mean q(FD), so it’ll be a Knight in center of each circle, as well as Astra is in center of qN! Puzzle isn’t solved!;);)

Covered but not everything. I found typo in the start (arround empty squares), different themes in diagrams (please choose: cburnett or alfaerie) and, finally, you forgot one King:

The c5 territory

  • White = (10x2) + (3x2) + 10 = 36 points
  • Black = (3x2) +(3x2) + 3 + 10 = 15 25 points
  • White wins = 36 + 15 25 = 51 61 points. Also there are 3 black bishops, isn’t their summary value tripled? In this case, it’d be 45 and therefore White doesn’t win this space but wins the game. (And so on)

Idk if it’s all. I hope one day it’ll be approved.
