Chess Variants: Suicide/Suicide 960

Whoever said winning is hard should try losing in this chess variant. Here, the objective is getting all your pieces taken by your opponent. There is no checkmate, the King is just another piece, and castling is not allowed. You start with either the board set up as in standard chess or in chess960, and then proceed to have your pieces taken. You must take your opponent's piece if you are allowed to do so (otherwise, how will it end?).

All in all, it's a nice breather of a variant, especially the 960 variety. Just one caveat: don't make a move while playing a "normal" chess game, or you might end up losing both!

Schemingmind offers a wide variety of chess variants to play, including this one. You may try playing in the site, as standard membership is free (limitations apply though).

Start losing... only on this one!
