Description: Try and stalemate your opponent with your horsses! Taboo prevents early initiative from red, and restricting placing the pieces on the two KoTH squares allows for a fairer game. The games are fun and quick, and self-capture is cool strategy to do. Also it’s quite playable.

P.S. what is the plural form of hors?

Status: Declined

hors
 Nice idea for April's fools day but not enough fun (nor balanced) to exist

gL

thx

the plural form of hors is

horsis

thats right, instead of hors, we say horsi

I think red will gain some advantage with restricted Setup:

1.@Ud3 @Ud4/@Ue3

2.Uf4/@Ue4 @Ue3/Uf3

but you can’t place on f3 and f4, your first idea I think red does not have a decisive advantage, though I do think you’re correct

horsi

Uf4 means the hors moved to f4*

hors!

*horsi!

hors

Though, /ViI/ is not allowed when combining with /Troll/ since it isn't able to be played in arenas.

ViI was only to set that "you cannot place pieces on the hill" and is very easy to tell and remember

ok

why not just put 2 dead hors there

This is Petrified

*horsi

no

yes
