Dice Chess for Ludii 1.1.6 - Michael Taktikos - 12-16-2020
Hello friends, this is my first try to submit a game, have chosen "Dice Chess" from the Brainking site,
because a game with dice cannot be dominated by the "unbeatable" Stockfish engine or any other Alpha-Beta algorithm,
and it is easy to implement. Enjoy it!

Hi Michael,
Thanks for the submission.
I adapted your .lud to the next version (1.1.11) and checked the rules from the source.
Some were not correctly implementing like that one: "If a pawn is to be promoted (would advance to the last row), the player can move it even if the die does not show 1. However, he can only promote it to the piece chosen by the die roll - for example, if 3 is rolled, the pawn can be promoted to a bishop only. If 1 is rolled, the pawn can be promoted to any piece."
And some rules in that file were from another Chess-like game in Ludii but are not part of that game, so I removed them (like the score or impossible to promote to a piece which is currently on the board).
Anyway, I fixed all of that and I will add that game to the next release :)
Regards,
Eric
