Castle War chess is a variant chess game where most of the pieces have different moves or added moves. The objective is still to checkmate the king. * All of the Pawns can only move like Knights, however, they lose their ability to trade themselves for another piece if they reach the end of the board. * The Bishops on white squares can continue their path turning a 90 degree angle if they hit a wall. * The Bishops on black squares can only move like rooks, however, they can attack black squares. But if a piece is in it's path and it is on a white square, the Bishop may jump over it. * Kings gets the ability to revive another piece when it reaches the opponent 's side, but the piece has to be put on the square that it was on when the game started on your opponent's side. If the King cannot summon the piece you called out, then it wastes a charge. Charges are used to revive pieces. The King can carry only one charge. The King automatically recharges when he moves to any of the 8 squares on your side. (For a recharge to happen again, your King must move off your side first.)
