Chess variants (10x8)

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

For posting:
- invitations to games (you can also use the New Game menu or for particular games: Janus; Capablanca Random; or Embassy)
- information about upcoming tournaments
- disussion of games (please limit this to completed games or discussion on how a game has arrived at a certain position
... speculation on who has an advantage or the benefits of potential moves is not permitted while that particular game is in progress)

Subiectul: Dark Gothic...wouldn't that sound cool?

oh, for sure it would! Just like chess variants today, it doesn't matter that the pieces are all the same, just as long as some rules are different. Gothic chess itself is based on Bird and Capa chess, GI himself even acknowledged that when filing for the patent. The patent protects the game of Gothic chess as his intellectual property. I was thinking, though, based on Walter Montego's suggestion, that maybe Janus extinction is better than gothic extinction because of the two Januses? I would sure love to try both though.
