A guide for NEW Horde-playersBasic ideas :
The "weird" thing about this variant is that the white site, the Horde, starts with 36 Pawns and without a king or any pieces. Black starts with the orthodox chess starting position.

White has four good starting moves a5/d5/e5/h5. Other opening moves lead to material losses.
