RULES:
The rules are the same as regular chess except for these changes. For a refresher of those rules, check out this video. Replace bishops with elephants and the queen with a minister.
Elephants jump exactly 2 squares in any direction, leaping over any piece in the way. The minister moves and captures to any diagonally adjacent space. Pawns are not allowed their initial double step move option, therefore en passant is not allowed. Pawns must promote to a minister when reaching the far side of the board.
If a player is stalemated then they win.

Castling wasn’t allowed at the time. Also capturing all of the opponent’s pieces and leaving the King “bare” also results in a win.

This is the indian game from where chess got originated ❤😊

[@hy7864]

According to H. J. R. Murray's Account, Harry Golombek's Account, Henry A. Davidson's Account, the game can also be won through baring the King. John Gollon denies the bare king rule though

[@ELEMENTL0RD]

Do ROYAL GAME OF UR

[@SgtSupaman]

So now you have to redo the Chess instructions with the starter, "The rules are just like regular Chaturanga but with these changes..."

[@Kirbythecuteball]

Similar to xiangqi but elephant cannot jump nor cross river. Horse cannot jump pieces and moves one point orthogonally first, then one point diagonally. The warrior cannot leave the palace and can move one point diagonal followed the line. And the king cannot do flying general move if opposing general face each other. Except a piece can block it. He cannot get out of the palace. The soldier moves 1 point forward to the River. Once crossed, he can move 1 point left or right. Once he reached to the side, he must move 1 point right or left. The bonus piece is the gunner. The gunner moves like the charioteer but can jump over 1 piece either yours or opponent’s to capture that piece.

Isn't it also inspired by chaturanga

You are not allowed to castle.

[@DOS-ry7hh]

We are unsure how the elephant moves and there was no castling then.
Could you do other variants like Makruk (Thai chess) & Sittuyin (Burmese chess)?
Would appreciate it!

Don't forget the Ethiopian version, Senterej, if that's ever possible these days.

[@aaronwong235]

Promoting to a minister must be a terrible tactic, because it's too weak, weaker then a king, the opponent might as well ignore the promotion, no wonder they change to pawn able to promote to anything
