Dynamo chess
Dynamo chess is a chess variant invented by chess problemists Hans Klüver and Peter Kahl in 1968. The invention was inspired by the closely related variant push chess, invented by Fred Galvin in 1967. Captures are eliminated and enemy pieces are instead "pushed" or "pulled" off the board.
Game rules
gollark: Arbitrarily linked lists: each node stores a fixed-size list of pointers to other random nodes (as well as the index, of course).
gollark: No, I think things can have multiple parents in it.
gollark: And I'm not sure what it would only be better than.
gollark: I mean, memorywise.
gollark: It's only better if you have HIGHLY big nodes, due to many pointers.
