The draft
The server deals each player three random Chess960 back ranks. You pick one. Your opponent independently picks one of theirs. The drafts are sealed. Neither side sees the other's offers or choice.
The starting position
Say both players picked offer A. Each side sees only its own back rank; the opponent's stays in fog. Only the server holds both.
960 × 960 = 921,600 possible starts. Standard chess is one of them.
Play status
