Event #22 Nightrider
The knight can move any number of steps as a knight in the same direction. Intervening squares must be vacant.
The diagram above shows how the knight can move.
Example 1:
White plays Nxe7 (Nb1-c3-d5-e7)
Example 2:
White can not play Nxb5 because d4 is occupied. White can not play Nxh7 since g5 is occupied. White can play moves like Nxg5, Nd7 or Nb1

Event #90 Towards the centre
Pieces on the queenside can move a maximum of 1 square towards the a-file.
Pieces on the kingside can move a maximum of 1 square towards the h-file.
Castling can still be done as normal.
The marked blue squares indicate squares on the queenside. The marked red squares indicate squares on the kingside.
Example 1:
Whites rook is on the queenside and can therefore move a maximum of 1 square towards the a-file. The rook can not move to a3 or b3.
Blacks bishop is on the kingside and can therefore move a maximum of 1 square towards the h-file. The bishop can not move to g4, g8 or h3.
Example 2:
Whites knight is on the kingside and can therefore move a maximum of 1 square towards the h-file. The knight can not move to h2 or h4.
Blacks queen is on the queenside and can therefore move a maximum of 1 square towards the a-file. The queen can not move to a3, a5 or a7.
Special Example:
With the Nightrider event whites knight can still not move to b2, b4 or b7.
