Abstract
A chess variant includes (a) one of an 8 by 8 board, a 8 by 10 board, or a 10 by 10 board; (b) a conventional chess piece set; and (c) a novel non-conventional chess piece set, wherein the pieces of the non-conventional chess piece set perform non-standard movements with rules associated therewith to govern how the pieces move and capture upon the board. Additionally, the set of rules governing how the rules of movement for the piece can undergo a change when a non-conventional chess piece reaches the furthest rank, akin to the process of promotion in standard chess.
