Back in HS, before we were allowed to leave school for lunch, me and my homies used to throw down some chess in the library. But when it got old, i had a notion. What if you reversed the entire purpose of the game? So we tried to give away all the pieces, and place our own kings in check, but this went too fast. After much tinkering, we developed a new game, a truly awesome pastime, by the name of Mark IV Crazy Chess. Rules:
1) If you have a move that results in taking the other player's piece, you have to take it. If there are multiple pieces in jeopardy, you can choose which piece to take.
2) All pawns move like kings.
3) As a move, you can regenerate a lost piece by placing it on an empty spot in your back row.
4) The game is over when you capture all of your opponents pieces during any turn.
Try it sometime, you might like it.
