Wait, can the Dragon jump diagonally?
Yes. Why couldn't it?

is how the rook moves are described and I thought of the Dragon as a jumping rook(with less range), not a jumping queen(with less range)

You were planning to have a 15 year old magical girl kill Witches by drinking them under the table!? It's original, at least.

Hm?
4 players, 2 teams of 2.

Essentially two games going on in parallel, on a single team you will have a white and black player. Any pieces that are lost are given to their opponent on the other board, which can be placed anywhere on the board providing it doesn't initiate checkmate, is on the first or eighth rank and replaces a normal move.
First team to checkmate wins. Simple, Fun, and utterly brilliant.

I thought that only pawns couldn't be placed on the 1st or 8th rank.

I would ask why fire can burn two men to death without getting hot enough to burn a book, but then I read "INEXTINGUISHABLE RUNNING KAMIKAZE RADIOACTIVE FLAMING ZOMBIE" and realized that logic, reason, and physics are all occupied with crying in the corner right now.

Did you seriously think I'd let something like that be possible?

Ah. Dragons can move in all 8 directions, but they can't move 3 spaces up and 2 right.

I knew that much, I just wasn't aware of any paratroopers in that game.

No. As I understand it, en passant basically lets you capture a pawn that moved two spaces as if it had moved one. And...ah. Yup, gimme a sec.

...Insert swear here.
My browser of choice, Chrome, has been acting up this evening. Like, it's not opening despite rebooting twice and trying to re-install Chrome. Hence, I have been using Firefox, which is barely working better. It's late, Firefox doesn't seem to like Google Drive,and I don't feel like screwing with it this late.n I'll fix it in the morning.

No, en passant allows you to capture a pawn/scout 'in passing' by moving two spaces, I think.
