Lordchess is a simpler version of Quangtrungki. The 3rd edition of Lordchess (Cờ Chủ) is created by Vu Q Vo on 24June2014.

Lordchess is played on a rectangular board of 50 positions in diagonal formation. There are 28 pieces, half Red and half White. Each side has one King (Chủ), two Knights (Mã), two Bishops (Tượng), two Queens (Pháo), two Rooks (Xe), and five Pawns (Bộ).

The objective of Lordchess is to checkmate the opponent's King. Stalemated is a loss. The third repetition is a draw.

The Main Moves:
(步) The Pawn makes one pace diagonally.
(馬) The Knight makes one pace orthogonally (vertically or horizontally) then one pace diagonal-out. It may jump over another piece. This piece is similar to the knight in chess.
(主) The King has the combined move of a Pawn and a Knight. If the King is checkmated or stalemated, the game is over.
(象) The Elephant jumps three paces diagonally or two paces orthogonally.
(車) The Rook slides diagonally. It may not jump. This piece is similar to the rook in chess and Xiangqi.
(炮) The Queen jumps over a piece orthogonally or diagonally then slides just like the Rook. This piece is similar to the Cannon in Korean Chess, the Cannon in Chinese Chess, and the Queen in FIDE chess.
