Lesson 11: Antichess

The game is played with all the rules we have learnt and from the normal start position - the only difference this time is the AIM of the game!!

Rather than trying to Kill the King - in this variation you don't care if the king is killed. In fact - you don't care if any piece is killed. The AIM of Antichess is to get rid of all your pieces - the one to have their whole army killed first is the winner!!

(note: if you are in a position to kill an enemy piece - you no longer can choose - you MUST kill them).

PRACTICE: 1) Play Antichess! 2) Play Antichess...but you must make it so your King is the last to die!
