+ Quantum Chess
+
+ Competition: Write an AI to play Quantum Chess. You can enter in any language that supports reading/writing from standard input/output.
+
+ Quantum chess is a variant of chess in which the type of a piece changes during play.
+ The game was invented by Selim Akl, and first implemented by Alice Wismath.
+ You can see their original website here.
+
+
+
+
+ Rules
+
+ The rules are basically the same as the original rules.
+
+ Differences / Clarifications
+
+ - The bottom right and top left squares are white (as in traditional chess), not black.
+ - Castling and en passen are not allowed (I'm not sure whether they are in the original version).
+ - If a piece in a pawn state ends its move in the opposing back row, that state is always replaced with a queen state.
+ - (because I'm too lazy to give players a choice)
+ - I might shorten the number of moves before a draw is declared, we'll see.
+
