Subiectul: Where did the name "Gothic" come from?
I was wondering why this chess variant is called gothic chess? Why the term "gothic?"

Also, I am intrigued by it. Does anybody know the drawing percentages at these tournaments? Also, how many players on average play in them?

One last question. In standrd chess, opening theory is out of control. Shuffling the bank rank helps alleviate this. I am wondering if gothic chess will experinace this same fate since its bank rank is the same for each game? I do not believe so because the 2 added pieces makes it too complex. What are people's thoughts here?

Regards,
Mark Havrilla
