| 20 Aug 2001 | Excellent | Thank you very much for the clear explanation. I needed it for a novel about the confrontation between Bayezid, sultan of the Ottomans, and Timur in 1402. Timur & his son Shah Rukh (imagine! naming your son for the chess pieces) spend a lot of time at the chess board as they plot strategy. - Geoff Fox (email removed contact us for address) ffreyfox.com www.geoffreyfox.com |
| 21 Nov 2000 | None | *smile* Just a note, but you mention in the piece description that the war engine jumps two squares vertical/horizontal, and call it the "straight version" of the generals' move ... ... but the General moves diagonally one square ... I think perhaps you meant that it is the straight version of the elephants' move? ~Melissa~ www.tamerlane.net ;) |
