Aug 2, 2019 at 9:22 comment added Brian Towers @Remellion I made that change to counter a vote to close on the grounds that the question was unclear and because I thought you made it clear in the body that that was your main intention. I think it is a good question and hope that it remains open.

Changed title to return to original scope (more than just variant chess theory, but also regular chess theory).
Aug 2, 2019 at 8:51 comment added Remellion @BrianTowers I don't agree with the title change - I'm not looking only for how to develop atomic theory. I'm also open to learning something about the historical development of regular chess endgame theory, as that might give a clue for what I should do.
Aug 1, 2019 at 13:22 comment added Remellion @David I'm looking for anything that could help me structure my approach. The development of atomic chess knowledge might mirror regular chess, so I could look to that for clues. (An off-the-cuff analogy: think about what if Stockfish went back to the 1800s and short-circuited chess theory development. We are missing out.) Also Phonon, I don't think it's a duplicate because I'm asking specifically how to study without books, literature, problems or master games to refer to. There are few for atomic, and those I've already been through (and even corrected some errors in prior theory.)
Aug 1, 2019 at 10:59 comment added David @Remellion What makes you think that the "endgame classification principles" of regular chess apply to Atomic?

Aug 1, 2019 at 10:14 comment added Remellion I already have access to (6-man) tablebases, as mentioned. I'm asking how to study endgames as a human, generate rules of thumb and principles and classify endgames.
Aug 1, 2019 at 9:56 comment added David Start with 3-men endgames, then 4-men and so on... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endgame_tablebase
