I am cancelling this tournament due to no participation/interest, however if you want to play the templates they are below.

A short description for each round followed by positions to copy/paste and then the ruleset for the templates to be used are provided here in this spoiler tag:

__________

A custom template similar to a "Storming the Castle" scenario, enter the area, control the sides, and deliver a checkmating attack on your opponents. Be sure to cover eachother as the fog will make it difficult to anticipate every move.

__________

A custom template that is much like a lock and key mechanism. Careful to bypass the knights with your kings and not be checkmated, you must choose to spend your tempo wisely, as the 50 move rule will turn your game into a draw without proper planning.

__________

A "Racing Kings" template where you must reach the top area with your rooks before red does, but yellow will actively slow you down. Impede red and fight through the center using your rooks immunity to checks/captures to your advantage.

R-0,0,0,0-0,0,0,0-0,0,0,0-0,0,0,0-0-{'royal':('g1','d1','','m1'),'resigned':(true,null,true,null),'zombieType':('','muncher_comfuter','comfuter','comfuter'),'zombieImmune':(true,false,false,false),'noCorners':true}-

__________

A "King of the Hill" template where the objective is to reach the center of the map with your royal king although you will face much opposition on the way there. Fog of war complicates your progress, work together with your teammate to develop your pieces and create a strategy to win, be it defeating green or escorting your kings to the victory.

R-0,0,0,0-0,0,0,0-0,0,0,0-0,0,0,0-0-{'royal':('f1','d2','k14',''),'lives':(9,9,9,9),'resigned':(null,null,true,true),'zombieType':('','','muncher_comfuter','checker_comfuter'),'zombieImmune':(false,false,true,false)}-

Pawns promote to a bishop on the 8th rank

__________

Much like regular chess, this template removes draws as a likely scenario due to rules such as 9 check and bare piece, while maintaining a semblance of balance between aggressive mating play or more defensive styles.

R-0,1,0,1-1,1,1,1-1,1,1,1-0,0,0,0-0-{'lives':(9,9,9,9),'pawnBaseRank':5,'wb':true,'dim':'8x8'}-
