i noticed on your examples that the captured piece always has cover for reprisal (the advancing piece can be captured). Can this move be used in the latter stages of a game where the defence would be totally exposed? Delighted to have found this move out (the hard way, ie. during play) and i'm curious of other 'lesser' known rules.

Regards,
