      What? Pieces can’t move over other pieces… This isn’t fucking checkers.

          I don’t trust wikipedia. I think big-chess has infiltrated it to sell you more knight pieces!

            In the anonymity of the internet, I dare to say that I’m a former horsey piece seller who left because I couldn’t stand it anymore. You are right, no piece ever moved over another. It’s a myth perpetuated by the kind of person I was. But I can’t do it anymore. It a lie, it always was. Don’t believe anything of it.

            Also stop using the kn**** word. It’s offensive.

          You shouldn’t believe everything that is on the Internet

        Try it sometime. The game will let you because it’s a valid move

          That is what Magnus Carlsen would want you to believe.

          Only once you convince it it’s actually a ghost and it can go wherever it wants but then you risk a haunting.

            Don’t be silly, basically you can get off the horsey and go around the obstacle, but the this doesn’t work for eg a pawn cause what are you going to do, split in two?

              While is this technically possible, it takes too much time (about 2-3 turns depending on the size and fitness of the horsey).

              That’s what they don’t tell you. “Horseys can jump, the Germans call them The Jumper.” Yes, but at what cost?
