I realize this topic has been inactive for over a year, but I just had an idea: <p><hr><p> <h4 align=center>Lazy King Double Weak Queen Chess</h4> <center><i>or</i></center> <h4 align=center>Lazy Chess</h4> <h5>Setup</h5> Standard board and setup, but King starts in hand, and second Queen takes its place. <h5>Rules</h5> Rules are the same as Orthochess, except where noted below. <p> On their first, second, third, fourth or fifth turn, a player must place their King on an unattacked square. That constitutes their move for that turn. <p> Queens may move only one, two or three squares at a time, in the usual directions. <p><hr><p> Nothing fancy here. The lazy King was inspired by the King in <u>Idle King</u>, and the weakened Queens are because there are two of them.
