Sorry I’m a bit new to chess so I’m unfamiliar with the rules. Are we at risk of being captured by the knook here?

[–] original_ish_name@latte.isnot.coffee 16 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

we're both white pieces so we're on the same team (the knook is on a different background because it's a checkered board)

This is Chess, not Checkers. We need a completely different board.

Imagine the shock some people are going to have once they realize they played chess on the wrong board all these years

I once played checkers on a chess board. It works better than the other way around, but it isn't fun

Considering it has the power of both the rook and the knight, we do appear to be in danger in our current position

Not me. I'm on vacation and don't plan on coming back
