Unequal games 2010 - 1 (PahTum - show rules)
Are all games equal for white and black pieces?
In this tournament we play games (with both colours, of cource), where the conditions are different.
It is possible in three cases:
1) The white and black have a different set of pieces ( Maharajah Chess, Horde Chess, Tablut), these games may also belong to the 2nd group at the same time.
2) Win outlooks for white and black are different (Alquerque, One Way Checkers, Mancala, PahTum)
3) We don't see great differences of win outlooks for white and black, but the DRAW result is impossible (if players don't agree) or very rarely (Anti Chess, Extinction Chess, Breakthrough, Assimilation, Ataxx, Go, Pente, Keryo Pente, Halma).
Is the normal result of Reversi and Anti Checkers draw, if both players do the best moves?
You can discuss on the discussion board of this tournament, where you are playing.
Write about any games, f.e. Extinction Chess, Three Checks Chess, Atomic Chess, Open Fast Espionage, Battleboats Plus, Jarmo, Knight Fight, Screen Chess, Pente, Keryo Pente, Linetris, Lines of Action, Hasami Shogi, Amazons, Grasshopper ...
Are here endless games if players don't mistake?
I'll write and later review on our Pah Tum tournament's discussion board.
I hope to create also the tournament Unequal games 2010 - 2 if this subject is interesting for you.
