2:34 Wazeer is just an other word for Queen. We do not consider Wazeer وزير as any piece other than the queen. So Wazeer may be translated in English as Minister the Queen is called as Wazeer in Arabic , Persian , Sindhi. Pushtu and Urdu. Please clarify these things in an other video.
2:54 Please note Shataranj is an other word for chess, the same error is repeated.
Centaur is قنطور in Arabic, Sindhi, Persian Pushtu etc. 7:52
1:47 Shatranj is an alternative term for Chess in Arabic, Sindhi , Persian and in Urdu. Old laws or Mughal Chess does not mean that Shatranj شطرنج is a variant of Chess , but just an Alternative word for chess , in the said above languages. So Shataranj is an other word for Chess. If some one disagree he may see Eng,ish Arabic , English Persian etc. dictionaries.

0:39 It may be noted that the Word Feel meaning Elephant is used exactly for Bishop and not of the a said Elephant in Indian Chess ( Mughal Chess).
It is Unqa عنقا A legendary bird , believed as a bird which if sits on the head of any person makes him a king. Often seen in folk tales.
This was very well done, kudos
Thanks, mate!
Geeze what the hell man.
Your humor is crazy
Ooooooooh, I thought amazon was a male, it's actually a female!
I was thinking: MAybe someone actually did an analasys on this game, kinda like Lev Rozman or smth. And BAM, even with side commentary, beautifull madlad. even as a 1000elo rapid bongo, I cringed at multiple points, good calm entertainment.
Thanks, mate!
We still call bishops elephant( fil ) in Turkey
lol start off the channel insulting YTs largest audience and making an inappropriate joke. good sub growth strategy there - I think I'll pass on any chess strategy you might have.
Quite right, having watched the recent US presidential debate, I can categorically state that the USA is a very serious country. Good will and prayers to all my American friends, in all sincerety.
Honourable Sir/Madam, I visited your RUclips channel, and I find your content very good. Your video's Overview, Title, Description, Social, Checklist, and SEO options are not correct, so your videos are not ranking well. If these issues can be optimised, hopefully, the videos will rank better. If you want, I can help you. Thank You.
I read somewhere that you use KDEnlive, is this still true?
This is incredibly well done for such a niche topic. I appreciate the effort..
Thanks mate!
First one here lol
I wonder if this was the first piece capable of checkmating alone.
That lady would have a big ELO score nowadays.
Wait, what program lets you play Grande Acedrex? BTW, it's pronounced "A(rcher) + CE(ntral) + DREX".
Thank you for the pronounciation advice, I had a suspicion I was doing it wrong! The program I used for everything except the Amazon was "xboard", running on Linux.
Hah, Bishops to this day are called 'elephants' (or officers) in Russian
Very interesting fact, I had not heard of "officers" before.
@@ChessMess when i looked it up, it's more common in Bulgarian But it reached Russian too
Bro got a little quirky with this title 💀💀
The elephant can jump pass another peice?
Yes, they are a bit like horses, but diagonal.
joke goes wild 1:42 promoting 6 pawns to elephants left the chat (2:53 never mind) 5:17 it's worth about as much as a king, expect it's not royal. 5:34 thanks for the suggestion! Very Nice, but I think some aren't forgotten :)
Chess is something i've always been interested by but never bothered enough to get good at haha, these videos are good for me Btw did you know that you're apparently a 5/5 according to people on Favoree, good job that's not an easy feat
Hello, thanks for the positive comment! I think I know the two people who rated me on Favoree, haha.
I played a game that lasted 0.7 seconds. The record still stands.
Very impressing mating speed that the rest of us can only aspire to.
So you’re not gonna mention the zebra 🦓 and no one is going to say anything about it?
Didn't make the top ten, haha!
The archbishop can also force unassisted checkmate.
What program do you use to play Shatranj?
Hello, I use xboard on linux to play or make videos on my local computer, but you can probably find somewhere to play it online.
Hah, typical Spencer
At first I was like yeah das rite Monarchy is for LOSERS! But then I was like Yo man now I'm sad can't believe you would say that after you'll was crying about Princess Diana. That was a body count of what 2? 3000 they weren't former royal 304s you wouldn't be able to handle that if that happened it was like the troubles except you'll brought that on yaselves to be perfectly honest. I don't see how she was supposed to be some kinda beauty queen I mean I know that Britts ain't the most attractive people but if she was a knockout I would hate to see YOUR MUM! ahaaah
𝖎 would love more videos of obsolete chess pieces ❤ thanks!
Thanks for the kind words. I'm thinking about some sort of a sequel video, or a series on variants. Nothing set in stone yet. :)
@@ChessMess awsome! Have a good day!
I don't suppose you have played The Ouroboros King? It's rogue-lite chess. Over 40 chess pieces.
Hello, this one is new to me.
@@ChessMess Yeah, it's a fun one.
Cool, I will look into it when I get a chance! Thanks for the idea.
@@ChessMess Yeah, no problem. Been trying to get the developer to add more pieces and stuff to keep improving on it but I guess not too many people picked up the game and the developer moved on to a new project.
In arabic countries we still call the bishop (alfil) and the queen (alwazir) although it looks like a queen lol
The Jester is basically like how I was expecting pawns to be when I first started chess.
Nearly the same as me! My brother taught me that pawns moved like Ferzes.
Thank you for the video. I was so upset because they didn't show the board
Me too!
Where can I pay online
Hello, you can play here if you hack java into your browser www.chessvariants.org/play/erf/GrandAce.html Otherwise, I don't have an answer for you. In the video, I am using gnu xboard on linux, playing offline.
Heyy, what is the chess software that you are using? I want to use it for a vidro project. Please help me out with this👍
Hello, in this video I mostly used gnu xboard running on linux.
Very interesting historical details are discussed in this video. I am not sure if you have covered this previously, but I am wondering which opening was the most played by each player as white? My guess would be the Evans Gambit, but I could be wrong.
Hello, my counts are (using the 85 games without the adjustments mentioned in thia video)... Evan's Gambit: 22 (L as white 16, M as white 6) Queen's Gambit Accepted: 15 (all L as white, M as black) Sicilian McDonnell Attack: 14 (all M as white, L as black) King's Gambit Accepted: 10 (all M as white, L as black)
So much to unpack!
Nice video, thanks man!! I hope you will make others on Shatranj subjects... However I can't hold some criticism. I mean, I have been playing Shatranj for 3 years (almost every day) and I can tell you some of the lines suggested in this video are debatable (or even wrong). Most noticeable: if you lose a Horse the game is over, you can resign; while if you lose an Elephant you can still largely achieve a draw.
Thanks for this polite feedback on my first shatranj video. :) I will keep trying to improve.
Great! impressive
Thanks Mr Bishop!
Im not sure this example is checkmate 7:32 seems to me that the white rock can capture the black rock who is giving the check.
Good point, well spotted, I must have got too excited! McDonnell loses his queen but doesn't get checkmated.
I was expecting this to end in check mate by La Bourdonnais after all those crazy Sacrificing of McDonnell's pieces, but McDonnell resigns instead.
Yeah, at first glance, I expected him to continue a bit longer, but upon looking at what's left for him to try, it's clear that he's cooked.
Yay, chess has its own version of Wonder Woman.
