Sythyry doesn't talk about this much -- zie barely plays -- but many students (and others) enjoy it. These are draft rules for the game of diamond chess, which have been bopping around in my head for a few years. I haven't playtested it at all. If you do, please let know how it goes.

Diamond chess is played on an 8-by-8 board by two
players. The players get two opposite corners. The diagonal
separating them is called the “river”. The pairs of
diagonally-adjacent squares crossing the river are the
“fords”. The actual board is rotated 45 degrees, to
be a diamond shape, but I can’t do that in HTML.
