There may be merit to the 1,2,3 moves any time though some of the changes
in Big Battle esp to the king seem a bit excessive.
But I would like to mention a change I made to the pawn movement in all my
games (including the pot luck tournament games).
All regular pawns now have the option of moving two squares forward to the
center of the board on the second move, if they moved 1 square (or
captured) from their original position on the first move.
- This strengthens the pawns and allows them to pave the way for the ninja
pawns. This affects the games Titan Chess, Stealth Ninja Chess and Birds
and Ninjas.
The changes are already made to the game rules on the site.
I hope this is not a problem for anyone playing the tournament (if it is
we can always play the old 1 step movement on 2nd move)
