Hi,

I've written a ZRF for Narrassetch, a hexagonal chess game invented by my son and played on an order-6 hex board (91 fields).

The piece/pawn balance, as measured by the ratio between mean piece value and mean pawn value (reasonable estimates thereof), is similar to the one in standard chess.

I've just now submitted it to Zillions, and it's also available here

Feedback very welcome! :-)

Why the name "Narrassetch"?

My son's name is Arran and he chose 'Narrassetch' as 'Arran' backwards plus a version of 'chess' backwards.
