The title says it all. The rook is…indeed a highly mobile stone tower.
Like, I’m just imagining facing off another army, and in the distancr I see a 4 storey tower grinding through the earth at 80 km/h towards us.
I’d resign on the spot.
I’d just make sure I was on the team capable of moving around stone towers.
Seems like they’re going to win a lot.
I think that would land you in prison sadly
You: Resigning on the spot. The Whole Ass Prison: Very quickly approaching your location.
Unless you’re a billionaire.
I wonder what the initial idea behind the rook was.
Was it always a literal tower that just squashed you?
The original Indian form was a chariot, while the modern piece started as a war elephant with a tower and eventually was just reduced to a tower.
I’m not sure, but I think it is a chariot
