Centaur King

Your king also moves like a knight.

The king gains eight extra escape squares and can leap out of a mating net. Attacks that rely on trapping the king on one colour stop working, so endgames turn into chases.

What changes

The board starts the same way standard chess does.

Standard chess: Classical chess. Checkmate the king.
