Happy new year too

A long while ago, I was asked to use my genetic chess software to try to work out semi-empirical values for the fairy pieces of musketeer chess. My program ( GitHub repository ) improves itself through evolution: randomly mutated players play a game, after which the winners mate and produce mutated...

but it's not included in the created link. Can be added if you think it is necessary.

I think this is necessary so that when one copies a link, the board will be drawn correctly with respect to the coordinate and move notation.

Great I defined musketeer2 game set with single piece letter. https://musketeerchess.net/tools/boardpainter/?gs=musketeer2&state=ca111111/rnbqkbnr/pppppppp/8/8/8/8/PPPPPPPP/RNBQKBNR/CA111111&rr=1&bm=1&bc=FFCC9C&wc=CF8948 The FEN in perft for all combinations can be used to setup ...

No, it is not international, it is an extended FEN notation to handle more than 600 pieces : https://musketeerchess.net/docs/boardpainter/board-painter-user-guide.html jerome I am aware of the 2-character piece name in the FEN extended format, what I mean is this one, RNBQKBNR/PPPPPPPP/8/8/8/8/pppp...

For your information, I'm working on a new "Play mode" feature for the Board Painter. You should be able to start a game with a subset of pieces (Classic, Musketeer, personal setup...) and then send a board with all positions by email or any message app, just a link to share. No rules con...

So this is a computer assisted tournament? It doesn't sound like anything that I would be interested in. PBEM is Play by Email, as opposed to PBM (Play by Mail). Because we both learned to play chess in the late 1960's we use English descriptive notation and Board Painter to facilitate movement not...
