Created by EmyViv in May 2026. Similar to Seirawan Chess (also known as S-Chess or SHARPER Chess), with a slightly different starting board, and a gateable Cannon instead of a Hawk. The Elephant moves as in S-Chess, with the combined movement of a rook and knight. The Cannon moves as in Xiangqi; it can move without capturing as a rook, but must jump over another piece to capture the piece that it lands on. Cannons are placed on d1 and d8, and Queens start in hand.

A 6x6 Shogi variant designed by Wayne Schmittberger. In Whale Shogi players have a very weak piece (the Porpoise) that if captured gives the capturing player the strongest piece of the game in hand: the Killer Whale. Detailed rules are available on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whale_shogi In this modified version, Dolphins (pawns) promote on the last rank and gain the ability to move and capture diagonally backwards.
