Tandem Chess. 4 player variant where pieces taken from your opponent are given to your partner. (2x(8x8), Cells: 128) (Recognized!)[All Comments] [Add Comment or Rating]There are many regional rules in this game. In our part of Germany and in Poland there is an interesting rule considering pawn promotion (called 'Grabschen', roughly translated taking away: If a pawn reaches the last line, the enemy team gets it, but the player owning the pawn promotes it by taking a figure of the partners enemy board. This leads to many tactical possibilties, like taking an checkmating figure (or the one that covers it) away. Besides that, we play our 'Tandem' without checkmating by dropping a figure, but with checking, and the first win ends the round.
