I once made a wild guess and decided that the maniacs army should have pieces worth roughly 133% of the values of the normal pieces.
Rs are replaced with Maniac Fourfers
Ns are replaced with Maniac N2s
Bs are replaced with Maniac B4nDs
Q is replaced with Maniac Acme
I called it Bearable Berserkers. Guess I should rename the army to something that ends with Maniacs.
They have not been playtested so I'd like ID to support Mandatory capture.
Currently you can only make Maniac pieces with a long Betza string. E.g. Maniac Wazir=cWomdaubaromdaubaromdaubaromdaubarmW
Not sure about Sirenes.
Can you reply a check with moving a Sirene to a square attacked by the piece delivering the check?
Edit: How do I delete a comment I entered without a verified ID?
In Bearable Berserkers, Maniac is a piece that only prevents itself from traveling but doesn't prevent others from moving.
