Gary, of course, grandmasters play other games, not the least backgammon. But this is not the issue. The question is whether we can find a powerful enough candidate to supersede chess. We sure don't wish it to be backgammon.
Another candidate with a potential for superseding Fide-chess is the type of CV:s that employ undefined or potential pieces, such as Bario, and my own variant Barion. I have improved the rules for Barion greatly and uploaded a new version today.
Potential pieces, or 'Quantums', or whatever you prefer to call them, is an area that could be researched more.
