Timurid

This page contains one or more presets for playing a game online with Game Courier, an online server for playing Chess variants by correspondence.

This is a Game Courier preset for Timurid Herat, one of the variants from the Timurid family.

The Timurid family is derived from Tamerlane II, modified for using an even board which allows different square color for the Bishops, Elephants and Camels of the same side.

This variant uses Crowned Rooks, promotable to Queens, beside the Kings.

This is a game authored by François Houdebert.
