Reach Chess

Period

Modern

Category Board, Race, Reach

Description

Discovered during Markus Niebisch's internship at Ludii, when a crossover-operator for games replaced the ending rule of Chess with the ending rule of hex.It is interesting as it still plays like Chess, but leads to a much more offensive play with many more potential sacrifices.

Rules

Like regular Chess, but player wins, if any of his pieces reach the last rank of the enemy. Check still applies, but Checkmate only forces to pass.
