In my previous notes I showed shortest mat (if both sites desire to do
this) in Classic Chess 2 moves(1.f4-e6,2.g4-Qh4x),Gothic Chess 2,5
moves(1.Cardinal(Archbishop in Gothic Chess)h3 -f5,2.Cardinali5
-h6,3.Cardinalg6x and in Grand Chess 4 moves
1.Rjf1-Cf7,2.Rad1-Ce6,3.Ce1-M(Marshal)e7,4.c4-Cd4x. I offerd that,if
'fool mat' is shortest, then safety of a King for this game is
less.Because one small mistake may be catastrophic.In Grand Chess
probability quick mat in beggining is smaller.
For classic Chess safety for a King will be -2(moves)/64(number of all
squares chess board 8x8)=0.03125, for Gothic Chess -2.5/80(board
8x10)=0.03125, for Grand Chess -4/100(board 10x10)=0.04.We see in Grand
Chess safety of a King is higher.
