Seirawan Chess
Seirawan chess begins in exactly the same manner as a conventional chess game.
When a player first moves a piece from its original square, that player has the option of placing the Hawk or Elephant on the vacated square, as part of the player’s move. Thus if a player played Ng1-f3, he or she could place the Hawk or Elephant on g1. The move would be recorded as 1.Nf3(Hg1).
