I have experience with Chess960, both from computer and from
human side. In this variant the pawns start as usual, but the
major pieces (king, queen, rooks, bishops, knights) are randomly
shuuffled on the back ranks, observing certain symmetries.
Exhibition games from the years 2004-2007, during the Mainz chess
festivals, indicated that human grandmasters seemed to do easier
against bots in Chess960 compared with normal chess.

Ingo.
