Object of the Medieval Chess game is to checkmate the opponent's King by attacking it so it cannot escape anywhere. In 'Promotion' variants MPawn's [MPPawn's] promotion immediately wins a game. Medieval Chess is same as Mediaeval Chess game, except that MPawn's [MPPawn's] can move and capture backwards, and also may promote to Amazons. Amazon Chess is same as Mediaeval Chess, except that next to King instead of a Queen is an Amazon piece. |
