Downloading and replaying the gamesDue mainly to the specially castling rules Fischer Random Chess games recorded in PGN cannot be easily replayed with regular chess programs or applications. However Fritz 10 can handle these files, in PGN or ChessBase formats. ChessBase 9 or ChessBase Light can also do the same, using the games in ChessBase format.

To do this you should enter the special rooms reserved for Fischer Random (also known as Chess960). You can go there to watch the broadcasts of the games being played in big events, or you can play games against other users yourself. You can also stage tournaments, for humans or for chess engines which know the game. |
