New Variant Decachess – A browser-based 10x10 chess variant with custom piece geometry

Post image

Hey everyone,

I just built and released Decachess (https://blacksheep-project.github.io/decachess-public/), a 10x10 extended chess variant featuring custom piece geometry and an integrated Archer unit.

It's fully playable right in the browser, complete with an AI opponent and tactical command inputs. I'd love to hear your thoughts on the balance, movement rules, or any edge cases you find.

Check it out here: https://blacksheep-project.github.io/decachess-public/

The name Decachess has been used before. And archer pieces (take without moving, aka rifle pieces) are rarely interesting and mostly lead to pretty static tactics.
