Terachess. Play this hexadecimal variant with 50% density on Jocly.[All Comments] [Add Comment or Rating]

I tried this out on the Jocly board. It's quite interesting and fun! I think I'd enjoy playing a physical game.

A small note: The text description of the opening layout is just a little bit unclear (especially with two of the lines on the list broken up), and doesn't quite match the illustration, which in turn doesn't match what's on the Jocly board (the Lion and Eagle aren't shown on the illustration). It should only take a couple of quick edits to fix, though.

@Bob: you're right. I don't know who has made this page and this diagram, it is not me. The diagram is wrong.

That Jocly implementation is old, and was related to Terachess I. Terachess I is obsolete and is not presented on Chessvariants.com. You can find it on http://history.chess.free.fr/terachess.htm at the bottom of that page.

Terachess II, presented on Chessvariants.com is the finalized version, unfortunately, not available on Jocly.
