consider supporting handicap 'odds' chess #352

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

I rather enjoy playing odds chess -- it makes for a rather interesting
game.  It would be interesting to keep player records and auto-handicap
odds games, so the computer knows what sort of handicap to offer.  Perhaps
this could be combined with a ELO estimator. 

<clearly this is only a wish-list item>

The next release will contain support for several chess variants. At this time
Shuffle(nocastle), Fischer Random, Upside-down and Losers are implemented. 
Adding
Odds chess seems easy, at least material variants. Extra move(s) handicap is a 
bit
complicated, as it needs to change the white move, black move logic.
