Chess never stops changing, and this recent addition comes with what I love most, really cool new pieces!
I just got my chess set in the mail from House of Staunton and I'm dying to play. In this chess variant there are two new pieces introduced, the Hawk and the Elephant.
- The Hawk is nimble and quick and has the power of a Biship and a Knight.
- The Elephant is truly mighty with the powers of a Rook and a Knight.
This game is played on a regular chess board with only slightly modified rules for allowing the new pieces to enter the game. I haven't played, but can imagine all of the new and exciting mating patterns.
We need a computer version of this game!
