Random Wormhole Chess (deleted). Introduces "wormholes" and "toroidal" movement to the game in a fun and manageable way. (8x8, Cells: 64) [All Comments] [Add Comment or Rating]This variant did not turn out to be very playable, mainly because of the practical impossibility of checkmating the King in the endgame. I have recently modified the rules, making the game simpler but much more playable: 1) There is no cylindrical movement. 2) The King does not move through wormholes; he moves normally, removing a wormhole when landing on one. I wrote a ZRF for it, but due to my very limited programming skills, I could not enforce rules for not placing wormholes when it would allow the King to be captured, etc; and Zillions plays it stupidly.
