This is really freaky! I was taught a game by my uncle about thirty years
ago (im 43 now) called Martian Chess. The pieces were a Freezer
(upside-down rook), chamelion (bishop), coordinator (knight), long leaper
(queen), retractor (king) and Flanker (pawn), but all at the same time, no
normal pieces. It was one of the best games I ever played and I even taught
my kid and he thinks it's cool too.

This is the first time I've ever seen anyone that ever heard of this
stuff in my entire life. What a mind-blower!

Sincerely,
Steve
