Sam has closed his piano and gone to bed ... now we can talk about the real stuff of life ... love, liberty and games such as Janus, Capablanca Random, Embassy Chess & the odd mention of other 10x8 variants is welcome too

O čem je toďten plk: about these newfangled pieces here...
The Archbishop is fairly formidable in knight/bishop situations. He's able to change color as a bishop with each knight move, and wherever he goes as a bishop, he threatens to move as a knight.
But as formidable as he is, the Chancellor is absolutely awesome. He is able to zip around like a rook, and land on sqares from which he immediately issues proclamations of "fork!" in 2,3,4,5 or even 6 locations, which a Queen can do as well, but not on the squares that the Chancellor does: his forks are like the knights and rooks combined. /Fx/
(do skréše) Jak chceš vlitnót do špilo se špilošem, keré bode asi tak dobré jak te, možeš zvolet vežadované rozsah BKR v novy nabidce ke špilo. Potem nikdo, kdo do rozsaho nepasoje, toďto nabidko ani neovidi. (Katechka) (okázat šecke vechetávke)
