subject: Re: Awesome Chess Variant !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"For those who don`t understand the joke :
In this version, the pawns are random - but with all the white pawns on the 2nd file and all the black pawns on the 7th file, just like normal. You just don"t know what order the pawns will be in. There are 8! ^2 possible pawn placements. The joke is that all of them look the same.
greetings
Helmut"

"Thanks Helmut for explaining the joke - I didn"t know that.
Besides, you are correct concerning the number of possible pawn placements:
(8!)² = 1.625.702.400
That"s a lot of theory to learn :-D
Warm regards
Andreas"
