the old monkey-king is also more able to retreat than move forwards.

Nice variant because of it's Old Monkey weaker than King.

An interesting variant that reminds me of Chinese Chess a little bit, in that the pieces are all fairly weak compared to that of orthodox chess. It's also less complicated to understand than at least some of Gary's other variants.
