Castling:
The rules of castling are similar as in classical chess. However, with the board 10 squares wide, the king travels three squares rather than two. The rook finishes adjacent to the king. All squares between the king and rook must be unoccupied, with the exception of transparent pieces (see witch rules).

Other rules of this game are identical with rules of classical chess.

Good luck!

Are retakes allowed in the rules? I will ask Martin. Also I can take the knight with my knight.

In a rated game, taking back a move is not allowed.

I would only have a doubt if the situation was, that one player wants to take back and the opponent explicitly allows it. But that seems not to be the case here.

This is a rated game, and I'm not sure takebacks are allowed. But if I don't get a response I will give the takeback.

thanks,

Please consider that there is a good reason not to allow this. If, purely hypothetically, players agree to take back and do this very often, then this would delay a game, and in the end disturb a tournament.

I'm not sure if the current rules explicitly prohibit this. But if an entire tournament was blocked because two players have gone into an endless loop of taking back, such an explicit rule would come soon enough. Just mentioning this.

Ok, thanks! because of the takeback it is Black's move.

This game needs a mod. I'll take it. Give me ten minutes and I'll have a board.
