e6-e8



In the interest of time, will you accept an ordered list of potential moves?

e6-e8 is invalid.

And yes, I will accept an ordered list.

So, given that I thought that I had already tried any possible moves, let's shed our assumptions and think outside the box!

In this order, please:


f8-e8

f8-g8

f8-g7

Hopper x Backup Dancer (c8)

f7-e8

f8-f6

The Craven captures Backup Dancer (c8)

If none of those work, I seriously have no clue, because I then, obviously, don't know how the pieces are allowed to move.

f8-e8, f8-g8, f8-g7, and Hopper x Backup Dancer (c8) are invalid, but f7-e8 is valid.

Valid move completed, Black is in check.

Since he now only has one valid move, can we assume he takes it?

f8-g7



I am curious why f8-g8 would be invalid.

The player must find the valid move themselves.

I'm so excited to see all the rules after this ends :P

And are you doing a different game afterwards?

I hope so!

I'd like to be one of the spectators.

Thanks for the interest! I was going to look into doing another game, but I may do Penultima as well.

Pretty sure this won't work, but worth a try:
e6-f8


If invalid, then:

g8-g7

This
shouldn't
work, but if it does, I think I know why.
