RE: [bug #60112] alternate gameplay options

[h . g . muller]

XBoard already supports chess variants with arbitrary piece moves. To make Pawns move backwards you just would have to specify their move with the aid of the -men option (e.g. xboard -men "P:vmWfcF"). Normally the engine for that variant would do this automatically, as soon as you select the variant from the New Variant menu.

Details:

was wondering if we could incorperate more game options into extra games like
pawns can move backwards but not attack backwards also skip a turn without
moving any peices would be neat. even in addition to some atomic chess options
or included with.
