Ball of yarn on e6. Also don't worry about your ethnicity, it's not racist.

[–] AnchoriteMagus@lemmy.world 7 points 3 weeks ago

I see what you did there.

[–] lena@gregtech.eu 2 points 2 weeks ago

Destruction ensues

What if it was a black cat?

I'm white

Wow, racism much?? /s

You either let loose the rats and try to get the cat to chase them off the board (Rat's Gambit) or unchain the dog (Dog's Defense).

Put it in one of those corner castles, making her a baroness. She now moves like a horsey with more power.

Take one worker token and add it to your pool.

Don't forget to construct additional pylons.

Both kings bongcloud, both hoping their superior grasp of theory will win the cat over to their side.

A cat between two armies. What will happen?

[–] lena@gregtech.eu 4 points 2 weeks ago

I suspect they will sign a temporary peace treaty to allocate time for petting the cat

Offer a draw. If they don't take the draw, throw catnip at row 8 and hope for the best.

You can pass through the occupied square, but you must spend one turn stopped there, petting the cat.

Unleash the train!

And then instruct the pawn to pet the cat.

[–] wonderingwanderer@sopuli.xyz 1 points 2 weeks ago

Or king side knight to F3

Is no one going to talk about the two spare queens watching from the sidelines?

[–] MonkderVierte@lemmy.zip 1 points 3 weeks ago

They have their army in hiding.

Guess it's the same as a duck or a dragon.
