      Yes, I did that also, but I promoted all my paw s to bishops and put all pieces on their starting positions, and the eight extra bishops on the pawn starting position.
      First time I stalemated, but second time it worked.
      But then I had to checkmate anyway.

    I think this would actually be a hard challenge, every time you capture a non queen piece it's removed but then upgraded and placed somewhere on board. To decide where it's placed (if you're playing white) start at a8 and try to place it, if the square is occupied go to b8, then c8 ect. If all of the 8 file is taken then go to a7 and continue until you get an open square. How the upgrading works, captured pawns promote to bishops or knights (whichever he has less of, if it's a tie do bishop) captured knights and bishops promote to rooks, captured rooks promote to queens, captured queens are permanently removed from the board

    @paul_warner Рік тому +3

    Chess but your king and queen are in a very strained marriage. The queen is tired of constantly going to war and just wants to stay home (king and queen on their starting squares). She will only go out to the battlefield if her husband is by her side. If he retreats to his man cave (castles or moves to the castled position (puts a rook between himself and the queen on the back rank) manually) she will go out but she will have an affair with one of the knights (by being in an adjacent square) for at least one turn. If a bishop catches them in the act (by having a diagonal line of sight or being in an adjacent square), the king will know what has happened and order the offending knight to sacrifice himself. Because the bishops will not grant them a divorce, if she is seen with a knight a second time he will have them both (queen and knight) sacrificed. The entire situation is an embarrassment to the country and morale is low so the pawns will not fight valiantly, they will only move one space at a time and will not enpisant or willingly put themselves in harm's way unless it is the only legal move or the king is on the battlefield (past the second rank).
    Writing ridiculous story-based challenges is fun but since the micromanager one was confusing and I now know that you actually might accept such a challenge I've tried to make the rules make more sense just in case.

    So a while ago me and a friend of mine tried beating Martin with the following rules:
    He has to not take a single piece(Pawns dont count, promoted pawns do)
    We have to take every piece of his and then checkmate with a pawn
    and the idea was to see how fast we could do it
    Would be interested to see you try

    Challenge: you can only make captures on light squares because you cant see in the dark duh, if a piece is on a dark square it must move to a light square when possible, once a piece is on a light square it cant go to a dark square, you can only give checkmate once all of your pieces are on a light square.

    EDIT: The dark squared bishop has to be sac'd on the second move.

      Ok maybe sacrificing the light-squared bishop is too much. The dark-squared bishop already can't do anything and knights aren't as effective because they alternate light and dark squares, which means only the g1 and b8 knights can move, and that's it.

    3. You are not allowed to castle king or queen side.

    I'm imagining what Eric Rosen might do if he was doing this challenge. At 7:25, he would probably say, "Oh no, my queen, my beautiful queen!", and then at 10:45 he might do another "Oh no, my queen!", as a sort of reverse psychology trick, having previously taught Martin that if you capture Eric's queen you'll get checkmated.

  • @blomman1719
    @blomman1719 Рік тому +2

    Challenge idea: The king is a distrustful supervisor.
    You cannot move a piece unless its to a square the king can see. The king see like a queen and other pieces block line of sight.
    You are allowed to move blocking pieces further away as long as they end their move within line of sight. (For example. E2->E4 is a legal opening move for white since the king would see the square after the pawn have moved.

  • @solanumtuberosums
    @solanumtuberosums Рік тому +2

    Challenge idea: Chess vs Martin but each turn, you can use Stockfish to find the best move (and only that one move). The only catch is you can never make that best move unless it is an instant recapture of a piece that made a capture the previous move. (So queen trades etc. can happen)
    This means:
    If there's only one move to get out of check, you lose.
    You can only checkmate if there's at least 2 moves that delivers mate in one. (Since the best move will always be the M1).
    If too easy, Vs Nelson.

    Challenge idea:
    Chess but all of Martin's pieces are atomic pieces (just like in the atomic chess variant). This means every time he takes a piece or a pawn, his piece explodes in a 3x3 square and destroys every surrounding piece (except pawns). On your side, your king is the only one to be atomic, meaning he can't take anything (or he just straight up explodes). It might be too simple so you could also do that when Martin pieces capture your stuff and explode, only your pieces are destroyed (meaning his piece and all his surrounding allies stay still).

  • @thelightningspark101

    Challenge: The Magical Pawn
    When you play, you are not allowed to move your queen at all. At the end, it must be a pawn promoting to a knight to deliver the checkmate.
    Also you are allowed to promote pawns to queens if you want to, but the pawn that delivers the checkmate has to be a knight. And when you capture the opponents last pawn or piece, you must deliver the checkmate within ten moves.
    Enjoy!

    Challenge: Zeus and Nelson vs Hera and Martin.
    Lore: Zeus sneaks back into Olympus after a week long rendezvous with a king's harem (while taking his form, of course). Hera, pissed off about him cheating for the umpteenth time decides to do something unconventional for her: possess the body of the queen of a rival kingdom and starts a war. Zeus, worried about the possibility of losing such a harem before he could thunder his bolts again with them, takes possession of the king he impersonated and defends the kingdom. However, Zeus is both exhausted from the amount of fun he had and he's conflicted by what he wants to do and how he should stop his wife from going too far.
    Rules: Because your king is possessed by Zeus, all your pieces must pay a price before you may capture. In order to capture with anything, you must blunder something immediately prior; in the case of capturing with the king, however, you must blunder/sacrifice two pieces. If you get checked or checkmated by the enemy queen, you lose instantly.
    Added difficulty option: If you capture the enemy queen at any point, you lose (does not apply to enemy pawns that promote to a queen).

  • @flightyavian
    @flightyavian Рік тому

    Beat martin but you are only allowed to make captures with bishops (you can choose whether or not checkmate is needed to be delivered by the bishop, but in practice i found it very hard for the two bishops to get down into a winning endgame so you can spam bishop promotions, so i chose to allow any piece to deliver checkmate)
    This includes ALL SCENARIOS, so if martin puts you in check and you cannot capture the offending piece with a bishop you must leave it. so there could be 'checkmate' where your only legal move is to capture but it cant be with a bishop. this is a loss
