I am just designing a doucecimal chess variant (on a 12 times 12 board)
and wonder how many moves I should reserve for the modified 50 moves
rule. 

I think, there should be sufficient moves such that knight and bishop and
king still can mate a bare king. The number of moves theoretically needed
is surely known, has someone the numbers ready for different board sizes?
