Hey everybody!
A couple of months ago, my friends and I hit upon the idea of creating a different type of chess variant, one where every player (four players total) has a different country, to make the game unpredictable. We named it "European Chess" and ever since, we've been developing and improving on our creation.
Why play European Chess?
- More variety. With 42 different countries, each granting different pieces and different powers, every game is different.
- More strategy. Pieces do not always move predictably, and strategy becomes much deeper because there are now three players you have to watch out for.
- More social. You can't just sit back and play quietly in this game. You must constantly be active, forming alliances, encouraging other players, and of course backstabbing!
European Chess became far more popular than we imagined, slowly spreading through Southern California. Now, we're hoping to introduce European Chess to the rest of the world!
** You can view the very latest European Chess rules here (http://nisnevich.com/alex/?p=chessclub_variants). **
We value your feedback! Feel free to comment or criticize in any way - only with your help can European Chess be improved. If you like Euro Chess, you can rate it here (http://www.chessvariants.org/index/rategamepart1.php?itemurl=multiplayer.dir/europeanchess.html), and of course show it to all of your friends!! =)
One final note: We are running a design competition where anyone can submit a European Chess country they have designed, and if your country recieves enough votes, it will be added to the official European Chess rules (with your name of course)! See the details here (http://nisnevich.com/alex/?p=chessclub_design).

Well, we have enough problems mastering this game alone.
We don't need variations.
On a lighter note, I'll check out the site. Seems interesting and good luck🙂
