  Chess problem - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography
A chess problem, formally called a chess composition, is a puzzle set by somebody using chess pieces on a chess board, presenting the solver with a particular task to be achieved.
Chess problems, on the whole, are not created for the purpose of practical chess training.
For reasons of space and internationality, various abbreviations are often used in chess problem journals to indicate a problem's stipulation (whether it is a mate in two, helpmate in four, or whatever).

 Patrol chess - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Patrol chess is a chess variant in which captures can be made and checks given only if the capturing or checking piece is guarded (or patrolled) by a friendly unit.
The variant was invented by Federik Hendrik von Meyenfeldt who published a chess problem using the rules in The Problemist (the magazine of the British Chess Problem Society) in 1975.
Patrol chess has often been used as a condition in chess problems.

 Safety Patrol -- Recommendations and Resources   (Site not responding. Last check: )
The tactic of patrolling may be applied to ground troops, armoured units, naval units, and combat aircraft.
This type of patrol is used by armoured formations in desert theatres, and also by ground troops operating in urban areas.
Many of the original patrol aircraft were converted from long-range bombers or airliners, with notable conversions being Germany's Focke-Wulf Condor and the widespread use of B-24 Liberators during World War II to patrol the areas between Iceland and Greenland and attack German submarines.

 Chess Guide > Baroque Chess
Abbott considers his own "invention" to be flawed, and has suggested several amendments to the rules, but these suggestions have been substantially ignored by the gaming community, which continues to play by the 1963 rules.
Baroque chess can be played with the standard chessboard and pieces, although this can be confusing at first to players familiar with the normal game.
The initial setup of the pieces is the same as in standard chess, except that the white king and queen exchange squares, and the rooks on a1 and h8 are inverted.
