题目: Schaholin - new game proposal

hi guys, this one is the craziest game ever ... dilemma who is stronger is over ... real battle field decides ...
two groups of "koong few" masters meet at the small island to show their superiority ... it's crowdy, it's unpredictable ... one group is highly trained in so called "knight style", the other one in "monk style" called also "bishop style" ... knight style fighters can jump over the enemy and monk style specialized in the long blows ...
if you want to know who wins, prepare the battle field as follow:

1. regular chess board
2. 32 white knights ( jumpers)
3. 32 black bishops (monks)
4. Jumper start first and capture any of the monks
5. Monk respond and capture any of the jumpers ...
6. Battle continue until one of the side cannot capture anymore ...
***
When someone asks you, what do you prefer: knigh or bishop, answer them: Schaholin has the answer ...

Cheers,
Andy.

ChessVariant: 1) It is with a random start position or do white knights occupy 1-4 rows and black bishops 5-8 rows?
2) Are you sure this game would be balanced?

题目: Re: Schaholin - new game proposal

Fencer: Initial position should be random ... is it balanced game ? my intuition tells me few things:

1. knights have an advantage in the crowded situations since they can attack up to 8 fields ... and bishops only 4 ... for pieces on the edges it even look worse for bishops ... but, when the board clears, long range bishops that can attack along diagonals and at much longer distances than knights in general ... so, distribution of power should switch to them ...

2. everything depends of the initial setup ... and I am not even try to speculate who will be the winner ...
it's too complicated to foresee the outcome ... as every chess textbook will tell you (regarding knight and bishop) : everything depends on the situation ...

3. And this unknown factor in every new game can make it fascinating ... like Big Uncle Einstein once said: "The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious ..."

4. The best test for every game is to play it ... if you , me and some other players could try it "behind the closed doors" we would be able to see if it make sense to release it ...
Thanks,
Andy.
