Izmail

Suwarrow now was conqueror — a match
For Timour or for Zinghis in his trade.
While mosques and streets, beneath his eyes, like thatch
Blazed, and the cannon's roar was scarce allay'd,
With bloody hands he wrote his first despatch;
And here exactly follows what he said: —
'Glory to God and to the Empress!' (Powers
Eternal! such names mingled!) 'Ismail 's ours.'
George Gordon Byron

This is a fantastic novelty in western and eastern chess! The variant Izmail is a classical mirror-symetrical chess in the center of a 10x10 board with two additional pairs of Chinese chess Cannons located in the four corners of this board.
