Croatian Chess – Back Page

“No FPS and racing sim [is a real challenge]. That is for dummies. This will make players of the game into new super-geniuses. Challenge to the max … how much combinations there are in that [last variant] with teleportation, unicorn, pyramid, winged horse [Pegasus] and wave. How much more challenging it is compared to classic [chess]. Just Croatian [Ties] doubled number of possible combinations…”
