Hi Dmitry,

This is an interesting looking invention you have here.  I like the concept of the game and the principals you followed.  It has led to a promising game.  Of course, something so radical will require testing.  The only thing that is unfortunate is the bishop "blink". I think the Elven pawns may be powerful enough that the extra blink might be unnecessary.

Regarding playing, your best bet is Game Courier on this site.  You can open one of the Chess presets, click Edit to modify it, and just erase all the code in the seven boxes at the bottom to stop it from enforcing any rules.  Then, in the first box, change the name from Chess to Asymmetric Chess, enter your user id and password, and click Save.  It will give you a link that you can then use to send out invitations to play.

Cheers,
Greg
