Chess on the Rope is considered as ready. Please watch to approve or dislike.

Thx for the layout! I’ve recently refreshed some text and carried the Rules section out of layout. So I want to say: Chess on the Rope are READY!

Also some my other variants are ready (I’ve updated Fluidity this week and ChBrTi today), so you can look at them also. Please

I tried to make the layout a bit more bearable by putting a section-spanning table around the Setup, Pieces and Rules section (in the cell on the right), so they are displayed next to the board image (in the left cell). This somehow alters the H2 header style, though, which seems to be defined differently within the table than at the level of the main article. If we could fix that, I think the side-by-side layout would be much better.

(I also tried to give the image a float:left style, but that did still confine it to the Setup section.)

Why the weird "modern" naming (alternatives)? A few specifics:

Modern piece created by me, but there isn’t its full movement, so here it can look as existing one.

This doesn't seem to add much? What full movement, and what existing piece?

Modern piece independently created by several people, i. e. by me.

I think you're misusing "i.e." here; you mean "including"?

Fairy piece, there with Shogi & Chu Shogi origins, so all names are useful there. It moves only one space in any direction.

But it's also the restriction of the wazir and the man and ... to 1D. Again I don't think the comparison to higher dimensions helps here, just say "moves one square" and get to the king-swapping ability.


I would transpose the diagram, so that it fits better on a screen, except that I worry about mobile screens. Hmm.

I'm not very familiar with the other 1D games we have here, I think it would be worth contrasting them a bit.

@editors can you please look at this?

Anybody, can you pay some attention for another linear travelling acrobates?…

In other words, what do you think about it? Is it something new for you?
