When the game begins, there are no empty squares for the pawns to move to. So, the only opening for a pawn is to capture an opponent's pawn. Where the quoted...
I'm travelling abroad right now, so I don't have a game to reference. There is one in the back of the Forchess book by T.K. Rogers. I'm not sure if you have...
Since Toxnx and I have played Forchess together before, it might be best for each of us to pair up with one of the newbies. In pseudo- random fashion, I've...

Mark, what's up? i haven't heard from anyone since last week. wechselstrom <no_reply@yahoogroups.com> wrote: Since Toxnx and I have played Forchess together...
I guess Dworks hasn't checked the messages in a while. Maybe Dan Percival would like to play in his place. I just talked to Toxnx, and he's still going to...

We'll go clockwise in that order, but I'll be red, Toxnx will be white, Dan will be black, and Jack will be brown. Technically, the first player is the one on...
Let's get the game started. I'm opening with a4xa5. To answer your question about typical openings, Dan, this is one of the most common. I'm threatening one...
b5xb4 Jack, We should probably attack Mark (brown), since he's the most experienced of our opponents. I'm threatening his bishop, perhaps you should threaten...

mark - pardon me, but what do you think of renaming the pictures something like... 000 Start 001 Mark A4 x A5 002 Toxnx B5 x B4 003 Dan E8 x D8 004 Jack E1 x...
To answer a few questions about the rules of Forchess: 1) Private collusion is strictly forbidden. All discussion of moves must take place openly and in the...
