As a variant inventor, I try to come up with a game that plays as well as chess. Even though I have tried different avenues, my ultimate goal is to come up with a game that plays almost like chess but on a bigger board with a few new pieces. Obviously since its new, opening theory will be a complete restart and it will take a very long time before this game ever gets 'stale'. With Titan Chess , I added many new pieces but I am very happy with the gameplay though I have to say it is a bit different from orthodox chess! I have tested this game thoroughly, and draws are much less likely in Titan Chess even though you can draw as in std chess. However, I see no flaws in the original game (orthodox chess) and certainly have no problem with draws. Perhaps, your see draws in chess as a problem, among other things because you like games with razor's edge win/loss conditions and changing parameters (like Fischer Random but more extreme with random pieces ). So yes, chess cannot be changed - the game has already been made and too much people care about it. But if another very similar game catches on .. that is another story. I can guarantee you that draws are not a problem for chess, And neither are computers - (George! ) Edit Form You may not post a new comment, because ItemID Draws does not match any item.
