Hectochess appletby Adam DeWittRule reminderPawns reaching the 10th rank must promote to any of the other non-royal pieces. The King can castle with either Rook, and then moves 2 or 3 squares in the direction of the latter. Instead of a 50-move rule there is a 64-move rule. |
For playing through the sample game discussed in the book, go to the game viewer.
The Machine is the only unorthodox piece that can force checkmate on a bare king. You can practice checkmating with it on the 10x10 board here.
