88 Hexagons Chess
This game was created unintentionally. The author wanted to create a chessboard on which it would be possible to play all major variants of hexagonal chess in his opinion: Glinski's Chess, Shafran's Chess and McCooey's chess. This is how HCB88 (hexagonal board with 88 hexagons) was created. And indeed, it was possible to play all mentioned variants on that board. The only problem was that Shafran's Chess for example, became a very different game and the same thing has happened with Glinski's and McCooey's chess. So, the author had an interesting chessboard but not an original game for it. At that point he started looking for a rules of a new game based on his personal experience with other variants of hexagonal chess.
Setup
Setup is similar to that of Glinski's Chess but as a big fan of Shafran's Chess, author wanted to alow castling. Therefore, he put queen and bishops together in one cluster and king to the bottom.
