Losing Chess for three players.

Object: To lose all your pieces or be stalemated.

All capturing is mandatory, though you may choose which capture to make. The King is not royal and may be captured without losing the game. Pawns may be promoted to a king.

This game uses Dave McCooey's HexChess as a basis for the set-up. Most rules of Western Chess are observed, with the exception that the center Pawn may not double step. This is to prevent any piece from moving to the center of the board on its first move. Also, there is no castling.
