[Retros] Erics off-topic idea

[tregeryefim at aol.com]

Topic: "a chess with a pawn captured win rule".

There are numerous flaws with this kind of chess. Some are below.
1. The one Joost de Heer said (Is a treat to capture a pawn like a check...)
2. Is a checkmate (stalemate) still in a effect?
3. If a side captures a pawn AND this leads to a stalemate is this a win or a draw?
4. Is the check of the legality of a position in a effect?
The offered position is illegal in the orthodox chess, but is legality needed? Imagine the position where a pawn has been definitely captured earlier. Is it illegal in this kind of chess? (assuming the pawn captured immediately stopped the game)
5...
Anyone offering new kind of chess cannot simply refer to the orthodox rules. He should define new strict rules! (or avoid obvious conflicts with the orthodox rules). 

Thank you, Yefim Treger.
