External Link: Throne Chess

Link discussing Throne Chess briefly. Throne Chess is same game as chess, except playing King to K8 wins too, by Thronemate. Such a move must be legal otherwise, e.g. not moving the King into check. A Thronemate overrides what would otherwise be a stalemate result (or the 50 move rule). Two Game Courier presets for play are available, one being rules enforcing.
