i reconstructed what i believe to be more or less the originial version of Chess called chaturanga in India. It looks like Sittuyin or Makruk, although starting configuration is random and realized by dropping pieces. Where the bishop in european chess there is an elephant which jumps one square more diagonally than the knight. I implemented some variants so it is likely that the original version is among it. Have fun with it ! let me know how it was gunananda@yahoo.de
