Double Checkmate
Sort:
So double check should be an add on to the regular game but as a toggle switch when you are making custom games. So the idea is if your opponent checks you and you have the chance to check them back it ends in checkmate because one king will die. Counter check is a secondary way to checkmate. I need opinions thoughts!!!
i dont get it
white checks black
black checks white
and the one king who will die first is blacks!
how does black win
if you presented this as if its just a random variant, fine but you act as if this makes sense with normal chess
Exactly. The game ends in checkmate because one king will die
yeah, but the king who dies is the one who counterchecked
so its a checkmate, but for the other side
so now theres a way to win by losing...
again, you couldve framed this as a weird chess variant but instead you act like it makes any sense as an extension of the rules
if you make a move that checkmates yourself, you dont get credit for it... because you lost from it (unless you win, but again, that makes no sense as an extension of the rules)
as a variant though it would mean that youd have to safeguard your king before checking the enemy and i do see some nice tactics coming out of this
Maybe you can make it stalemate
