I'd learned it with different piece moves, where the Boat leaped two squares diagonally (and could capture the other three Boats if on completing its move all four Boats were in a 2x2 square), and the Bishop was a Rook.
That's how it's described on Wikipedia. Also, a pawn promotes to the piece that started behind it, which must have been captured, and there are some other rules
@@ÑwhatÑ ohhh, well there's a lot of other videos of how to play this but they all have different kinds of play styles as well as rules. One I like is with dice, and since it's such an old game it's kinda hard to pin point the exact original rules so pretty much anything goes as long as it's written in a history book
If the sailboat doesn't do anything different than the Rook oh, why not just make it a rook? It doesn't make any sense to have it be a different piece altogether other than the fact that you're not supposed to Castle just make the rule you're not supposed to cancel why change it to a sailboat? Honestly what I thought was going to happen instead of the castling ability I thought the King was going to be able to board the sailboat and move around like a rook. That would be interesting. It has the abilities and importance of both king and rook. One square diagonal movement, as many squares in straight lines as possible. If sailboat is captured, you lose both and the points for both. I can see that. Otherwise why change it?

Wait, how can you have a dead king to capture if the only way to be a dead piece is by capturing their king?
My guess is resignation or no legal moves automatically knocking you out?
If a player resign or runs out of time the king will become dead
Jigsaw stuck some poison in the kings. If you don't win before the turn timer reaches 0 your king dies.
shown in 1:46, that rule is wrong
It was a mistake

I believe that this game is a variation of Chaturanga since they have different rules and peices, as well as dice
It actually is following the wiki

Chaturaji has existed for longer than the Chess we know today lol
It was originally a boat back then probally
ask that to the people who made chess, why did they change it to rook when it was originally a sailboat
@@aeaeeaoiaueaexactly
Chaturji existed way longer than chess did
You wasted your time typing that long sentence
Yeah, ancient chess!
This is the chesscom version of Chaturaji
@@hy7864 Hey, but its still fun
Wait so if only double and triple checks give points, then regular checks do nothing?
Wait, how can there be a dead king if you need to capture a king to have the pieces of its color dead?
Resignation ig?
Resignation or time-out

Wow wow wow....wow.
It is not a variation of chess it is a variation of chaturanga which is actullay older than chess
@@DeadShooter518 Chess is just evolved Chaturanga.
Bruh
Is the sailboat only a sailboat to disallow castling? I don't see why it couldn't just be a rook.
Yes.
the game came out before rooks existed
It might also be before the queen existed because there is no queen ether
0:48 Is that a Swastica?
Yes
I love this variant
thank you🎉
02:06 In this example:
Red wins with 10 points.
Yellow, the only remaining player has 3 points.
Clearly, there's more than 7 points available on the board - I do not understand?
Maybe Yellow captured more Green and Blue pieces so he got more points
@@crowreligion It shows the sccore at 02:09.
yes another video
1:42 How can an uncaptured king be dead, other than by resignation?
nvm idek
You just answered your own question.
Timeout
6:00
what do you mean and why did you like your own comment
Wait! I see your logo and name on the scoreboard!😮😂
How many points does a rook(not sailboat) give you?
5 like a sailboat? 1 as it was a pawn? Or 0 at all?
Nice
What's the point of having a sailboat? If it has the same moves as a rook, just call it a rook?
Why dont you ask the people in the past why they changed sailboat to rook?
How about you use a rook as a sailboat and a queen as a rook
What if you reveal a check by a third party's piece? Who, if anyone, gets the points?
"Pawns may not perform their intial double step move, therefore En Passant is not allow"
1:07 "does double step move and enpassant"
Its just an example of what u cant do
Wait, it’s (chu-too-ru-gee)
And not (chah-to-rah-jee)?
Following Google Translate is pronounced chaturaajee
@TripleSGames It's Chaturanga, not Chaturaji.
Chaturaji and Chaturanga are not the same game, Chaturanga is like a Chess beta, Chaturaji is a 4-Player version of Chaturanga
Teaming up becomes mandatory when player count reaches above two players.
I would like to see a Russian translation of this video, but I don't think I can find it
Why is the queen replaced with the boat
Chaturaji is older than Chess, there was no queen
Soo is rook 5, 1 or 0?
Can I swap the boat for a rook?
Yes because they move exactly the same
1:13 How does a rook move?
Like normal
Ok
How does the boat move?
It is a Rook that can not castle.
2 squares diagonally
When it moves such that a 2×2 square filled with boats is formed, it captures all three boats of the other players
How many pawns can convert to Rooks?
All of them
@@drakebalzer3950 Thanks
The rules are the same as for regular chess, except for these changes: There is no board or pieces. Each player has three darts. ...
0:45 put ur pawn at b3 and bishop to b2 and then put the bishop to c3 to probably checkmate the opponent
Wait, if the boat moves the same as a Rook and there's a Rook in the game, why have a boat?!

This video is inaccurate. The rules of movement for some pieces are not right. (This comment is from my 7-year-old son.)
Thats becasue some versions of Chaturaji have different pieces
Not chaturangi it's chaturang 😂
I said this to another person, but anyway...
Chaturanga and Chaturaji are not the same game, Chaturanga is like a Chess beta, Chaturaji is a 4-Player version of Chaturanga
Another variant that disables en passant. why
Because because pawns cannot perform their initial double step move
@@aer0awhy they cant
@@The_Dr_Fate
Because the initial two-square move in chess was a much later development to get the action started sooner.
@@KororaPenguin what?

It wasn't until... I'm not sure exactly when someone first had the idea of a two-square initial Pawn move, but it was well after Chaturaji and Chaturanga.
