    Abstract: Battlefield Chess (BC) differs from conventional chess (CC). First BC has a number of moves in addition to the moves of CC. For example, the knight in CC can move forward, backward, and sideways in an L-shape, for example, 2 spaces forward and then 1 space right or left. Two other differences are the size of the board [22 by 22 (=484 playing spaces)] for BC, compared to 8 by 8 (=64 playing spaces) for CC], and the number of playing pieces. CC has 8 pawns, 2 rooks, 2 knights, 2 bishops 1 queen, and 1 king for each of the 2 teams or individuals playing the game. In BC, each side has 22 pawns, 6 rooks, 6 knights, 6 bishops, 3 queens, and 1 king. The larger playing board, more playing pieces, and additional allowed moves make BC much more challenging than CC.
