| Object of the EdinA Chess game is to checkmate the opponent's King by attacking iT so iT cannot escape anywhere!
In 'aSymmetric', 'nonSymmetric' and 'Duel' variants the same Black and White pieces might not have the same defined movements!
[In 'Promotion' variants [King is not a Royal piece!] PPawn's promotion immediately wins a game!].
EdinA Chess game is same as Classic Chess game, except that next to King instead of a Classic Queen is an EdinA Queen piece!
[Starting position of pieces in the EdinA Chess game is same as is in Chess game!].
Note: Pawn's [PPawn's] in EdinA Chess game might not take [capture] opponents piece even if in position to do so!
In the beginning of the game, develop your pieces [EdinA Queen too!], without losing a 'tempo'! Do not advance your Pawn's [PPawn's] to fast, to soon! Castle on time, and protect your King!
Exchange lower valued pieces for higher valued ones! Look to break opponent defense with 'clever' sacrifices, and play, and play, and play, and play and play...!!!
[Note: a Pawn [PPawn] is worth 1 point, a Bishop is worth 3 points, a Knight is worth 3 points, a Rook is worth 5 points, and an EdinA Queen is worth 13 points!].
Remark: Due to unconventional and sometimes non-intuitive piece movements: 'aSymmetric', 'nonSymmetric' and 'Duel' variants are especially challenging and fun to play!
Try to 'assassinate' a computer opponent [Zillions engine!].
Have fun! |
