Check out Janggi (Korean Chess), our featured variant for November, 2024.
I put the following in a wrong thread, so I'll delete it from there, after cutting and pasting it here for anyone who might be interested:
Posted by Kevin Pacey: After an idea occurred to me today, I'm testing out what a possible 3D circular chess variant diagram might look like. It's a 3D "diagram" that's a hybrid sequence of Circular Chess diagrams, albeit of somewhat varying sizes, based on such Circular Chess diagrams that are currently available to me on chessvariants.com. Perhaps an editor may wish to tell me if this 3D "diagram" might be acceptable in any possible future submission (presumably the 3 individual Circular Chess diagrams would line up vertically if in a submission).
Because the (empty) middle circular board has file labels, the location of the pieces & pawns on the other boards could perhaps more easily be referred to by file, too, by naming (with plain text) each piece's coordinates in the Setup section of such a submission. The idea of any variant based on the 3D "diagram" could well be to win by checkmating one of the other player's two kings. I'm still thinking about whether such a variant might even be feasible, but first here's the test, to see if it's even possible to submit such a variant diagram as acceptable:
Board 1:
Board 2:
Board 3:
