@SamarthGadamshetty
you still haven't fully explained your pawnhorse

so it's all the time been unclear what this whole thread is even about (lol??)

how it captures...
what becomes of it on the last line...
cf #9 & 10

you are rated rapid 2100 and you don't know what a pawn can become on the last rank? it can turn into a queen, rook, bishop and knight from normal chess. what do you want???????????/

I think this is a valuable example for you in speaking and thinking clearly about what your ideas are.

I think he knows what a pawn can become on last rank. But this is a horsey, a made-up piece. You need to define that behavior.

Also it is still unclear how it moves. In #7 you said its a knight that moves one square up but can capture normally. Normally for what? Normally for a knight or a pawn?

Try to explain it like this:

Horsey Movement: Can move one square up, can also move L shaped like a horse, but cannot move backwards.
Horsey Capture: Can capture like a horse? Or can capture like a pawn? Or can capture like both? Is it allowed to capture backwards?
Horsey Promotion: Promotes like a pawn, except can get to promotion square by a horse move now.

Then it would be clear.

stop it

lol
