Hi Fergus, There's currently a few games of infinite chess in progress and some of them are on public game forums, such as at the musketeerchess forum, and chess.com. It is also being discussed on math forums, because of how it affects the ability of chess to be analyzed by game theory, and chess-playing software.

I did delete your graphic from this description, because I will of course respect your artwork if you don't want it used for the huygens.

I also added a mention of Hans Bodlaender on this page, and added a link to a page he wrote in 2001.

I understand that the Piececlopedia is for pieces with a long tradition, so I understand you may not want it included there. But I hope you will make this page visible to the public, so that the CVP pages are useful to people who might want to learn more about Infinite Chess, and the pieces that can be used with it.

As always, I really appreciate your support.
