ChessVariant: Congratulations on those two games.
Innovative? I'd say something new, unseen. (yes, yes, you might say every rule change creates a "new" game) This time, I am fully aware that it's hard to find something both original and attractive in chess, so God bless you for your ideas that turned out to be big successes.
If you're that good in developing games, why don't you add ideas for games of other types, or maybe come up with a new "family" of games. Anyway, if you carry on providing us with chess variants, Fencer will be forced to rename this site into ChessKing. :)
