The concept fot this game was orgionaly conceived by a Mr Peter Wison following a discussion on the feasibility of playing chess on a globe with the specific intention of being able to play chess on a bord without borders. At the time, Peter Wilson insisted that pole crossing rules had to be added to prevent royalty from assuming strengths and weightings not normally available to them. To this end he proposed that no piece crossing the pole should be able to move beyond the first sqaure adjacent to the pole. No further restrictions were envisaged.
