As you may or may not know - Wacky Chess keeps score. Here's the formula for keeping score.
You know the points system some people use in chess? If you don't...
Pawns are worth 1 point
Bishops and Knights are worth 3 points
Rooks are worth 5 points
Queens are worth 9 points
Kings are priceless, but some people call that 3 1/2 points. In Wacky Chess, Kings are 4 points.
Take this points system. This I'll call the defending power. Divide that from 9 and round to the nearest number. This is known as the attacking power.
Take the attacking power * 10 * the number of spaces a piece moves. You get those points for this move.
If you capture someone, then it's 100 points * attacking power * defending power.
If you capture someone, and your opponent captures right back, that's known as a counter-attack and scores points. If the original capturer captures someone right back, it's known as a double-counter and scores more points than the original counter.
If you capture someone, your opponent doesn't, and you capture another piece on the next turn, that's known as a combination and scores points that way.
