Shatar (Mongolian: ''Monggol sitar-a'', "Mongolian shatranj"; a.k.a. shatar) and hiashatar are two chess variants played in Mongolia. ==Game rules== The rules are similar to standard chess; the differences being that:〔http://www.chessvariants.com/oriental.dir/shatar.html〕 * The ''noyan'' (, ''lord'') does not castle. * The ''küü'' (, ''pawn'') does not have an initial double-step move option, except for the queen pawn or king pawn. * *In old shatar rules, a pawn that reaches its eighth rank must promote to half-power tiger. But a pawn could step back to its sixth rank to promote to all-power tiger. It moves like a queen. * The ''baras'' ( or , ''tiger''; Persian: ''fers'') moves like a promoted rook in shogi: like a chess rook or one square diagonally. It was called half-power tiger or half-power lion in old shatar rules.〔 * *In modern shatar rules, a baras moves like a queen.〔 * The ''mori'' (knight; ) cannot deliver mate. * *In modern shatar rules, the mori ''can'' give mate.〔 * The bishop (teme) and rook (terge) move as they do in standard chess. * The game always starts by White playing 1.d4 and Black responding with 1...d5. This is the only time in the game a pawn may advance two squares; some sources claim this initial move can optionally be made with the e-pawn. * *In old shatar rules, Ujimqin player must make an initial double-step move with the queen pawn; in Chahar, the king pawn.〔 *In old shatar rules, baremate is draw.〔 *In old shatar rules, one special rule is called ''tuuxəi'', like komi in Go. A player could leave the enemy with only two pieces remaining (noyan and another piece) at the end. Then he must start making checks using the ''terge'' or ''baras'' and make consecutive checks until checkmate. Before checkmate, number of consecutive checks is the number of tuuxəi. If a player wins by checkmate as in chess, he receives only one tuuxəi. A player usually leaves the enemy with one noyan and one ''küü'' ot allow time to put his pieces into good positions for making consecutive checks.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Shatar」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
