Yes Greg your second option would make it.
How to add them to the Sac set?
Practically where and how "open" the Sac set? My question is probably trivial, but I can't find how to do it. I believe it is not complicated but...
Thank you Greg, it helps.
How can I add new pieces in the Sac set. What I would like to add are the 4 shown by Zhedric, they are fine for RKN and BKN. Letters can be H and T respectively (Heroine / Templar).
Merry Christmas everyone
Merry Christmas to everyone. Joyeux Noël !
The preset for Very Heavy Chess seems now ready. Thanks to Greg and all friends for your help.
Yes, it looks correct. Thank you
But personally, I'm unable to see anything with the abstract pieces, even for the simpler ones. I understand how it works, it is a perfect logic, but it is a strong effort for my brain to decode what is seen by my eyes. I don't know if other people have other experience, probably they have.
Still trying to understand how-to-do things. How can I edit the Set "Metamachy" in order to add more pieces ? Or maybe only editors can do it?
Heavy Chess. Play Heavy Chess on Game Courier.[All Comments] [Add Comment or Rating]Greg,so what about the ones I have made? Both for Heavy C and Very Heavy C. I even have a game on-going with Numerist on Heavy C. timurthelenk-numerist-2020-357-808

Heavy Chess. Play Heavy Chess on Game Courier.[All Comments] [Add Comment or Rating]OK, no problem. No easiest and the most convenient for you will be the best. Thank you
Game Courier. PHP script for playing Chess variants online.[All Comments] [Add Comment or Rating]OK yes, maybe it's simpler. The context is I notice that I have a full series of chessvariants (Shako, Metamachy, Teramachy, Gigachess II, Terachess II, Heavy C, Very Heavy C.) where I use 26 different pieces. So I wanted to make a set, using Alfaerie, and I was thinking expending Metamachy set for that.
This set has 12 pieces already; B, C, E, G, I, K, L, M, N, P, Q, R. The new pieces would be: (you can look at https://www.chessvariants.com/rules/terachess-ii)
A >> Amazon (QN)
D >> Duchess (KDAGH) (the Alfaerie for Falcon or for Duke would make it)
F >> buFFalo (NCZ)
H >> marsHal (RN)
J >> centaur or Judge (KN)
O >> sOrceress (leO). I use a star (8 legs) I don't know if there is one in Alfaerie
S >> admiral or Sailor (RK)
T >> Troll (GH+pawn) (the Alfaerie for Man maybe?)
U >> rhinoceros or Unicorn (W-then-B)
V >> crocodile or Vao (please put a crocodile not a bended cannon)
W >> War machine (WD)
X >> cardinal/archbishop (BN)
Y >> missionarY (BK)
Z >> giraffe or Zaraffa (Z)(please put a giraffe not a zebra)
Is it feasible? Thank you
@Greg: thanks a lot. 2 things:
-
the back crocodile is indeed missing
-
for the buffalo, I don't like the symbolic combined animal, it is not the spirit of that set. Could you replace it by the Ox ?
For cazauxgraphics, it is a very good question, I'm glad you ask because I had made this set >20 years ago for my 1st book and it is ugly for many pieces. I have much better, also much more complete, I'll send to you by PM.
Thanks again
Sorry, I went too fast. For the U, could you put a Rhinoceros instead of a Unicorn? The rest is OK, Buffalo / Wildebeest is good
Shako_Balbo. Game with Diamond Shape Board.[All Comments] [Add Comment or Rating]Just a small correction while reading the rules: it should be written "En passant" not "En passent".
I am invited to play Shako Balbo but curiously when I try it says This invitation seems to be for someone else.
Hello
Now, I got this:
This invitation seems to be for someone else. $userid, which is , does not match $opponent, which is timurthelenk. $userid, which is , does not match $_SESSION["userid"], which is timurthelenk.
What I see is this: A Personal Invitation for Jean-Louis Cazaux to play shako_balbo.
I am invited by wdtr2 I see in his personal information that he his marked as "dead" in the database. Could it be the root cause of the problem?
I have tried with another browser and it is the same.
Yes you can. I sent you a new invitation

Game Courier. PHP script for playing Chess variants online.[All Comments] [Add Comment or Rating]The move for the Camel is strangely written:
"can leap to any space at the opposite end of a 1x3 triangle"
Can it be changed to write, more conventionally:
"is a (3,1) leaper"
Thank you

Shako_Balbo. Game with Diamond Shape Board.[All Comments] [Add Comment or Rating]Seems better, but I'm given blacks.
Sure, what I wanted to say that it was not saying anymore that I don't correspond to the invitation (so, it was better), but as I was now assigning with Blacks and couldn't start and I couldn't check if it was all OK.
This morning, my opponent who launched the invitation, started also the first move and I have been able to play my first move as well.
So all looks good now. Thanks a lot for your support.

Trying to make a preset for Very Heavy Chess, I would like to expend the Set "Sac Chess" with 2 pieces: a Templar (BKN) and a Heroine (RKN). I don't know how to do. It would be good also to have corresponding icons for those pieces in the Alfaerie type, similar to what has been done (for me) on the Chess Board Painting Tool that I have used to make the graphics on the Very Heavy Chess page. Thanks for any help
