Joe: That sounds like it’s still too complicated for what Fergus is looking for.
How about this: The rules are identical to FIDE chess, but every piece can only move a maximum of two squares. Pawns can not move two squares; only one. Every piece can leap two squares over pawns and other pieces. Castling is normal--this is the only time the rook can move three squares.
