(Chess Variant) Angel Chess.

To rj, it is not mate as you can drop a piece in to block the mate. To casualr, yeah I see where you are coming from with my other variant. I think the best solution is to have a board with no coded rules on so we can try out different rules and see what combination feels best.
I just thought of a really interesting rule for dropping pieces, inspired by soccers offside. You cannot place pieces further than your furthest passed pawns rank. Should allow for fun + strategic depth, and more fairness.
i really like casualr's suggestion of starting with an empty board and placing pieces on your side of the board.

i would like to add that it would be pretty cool if players take turns setting up their pieces until all are on the bard then start to attack.

you can set up little forts to defend your king :D
I really like this idea also, creating forts at the start of the game would be awesome.
To wafflesmack, I played a game OTB with a mate, where you took turns places pieces in the first 3 ranks each and then played once all the pieces were placed. It was alot of fun :)
