I really like atomic chess also (even though I'm not good at that either) - and I thought about an "atomic Gothic Chess", but with the extra 2 "power" chess pieces, I think the white player can start an attack really quick and win the game without black having much of a chance.

(but I did not do a lot of research of atomic gothic chess, so I might be wrong) :-)

Subject: Re: Atomic Gothic

BBW - i think you are right but being on the offensive first up means that you must continually put on pressure which can cost pieces. Would like to try it out though.
