I'd like to bring Chieftain Chess. While it's a large game, it goes quickly, because it's a multi-move game, like Fergus' entry. It simplifies things like Carlos' choice, also doing away with castling, en passant, and promotion. It too gets rid of pawns and replaces them with men, non-royal kings; it has only 5 piece-types. Basic rules only, no optional pieces or moves, except that I am willing, as black, to pass my first turn, giving white 2 turns to start, to demonstrate there is no first turn advantage whatsoever in this game.
