Another form of Crab appears in Bostick's Kung Fu Chess. With this febrile creativity name collisions cannot be avoided. Anyway, mine is a Crab pawn, which is different. It has vitalized Elephant Chess. This pawn isn't particularly wild, while the extra move doesn't occur often. But it decreases the draw risk very much, despite the fact that all pieces, except the rooks, are short-range. This is a confortable chess variant, and not so stressful. Quite strategic with good winning chances, thanks to the curious Crab jump.
