This game is an adaptation of Martin Gardner's Hexapawn to a full chessboard. It was also influenced by Johannes Tranelis' Alapo. Each piece is a Pawn in addition to its ordinary piece type. However, no piece may ever move backwards; and pieces may not make lateral moves except when capturing. The object is to stalemate your opponent, or to get a piece to the far rank such that it can not be immediately captured. |
