+Spirit (10,2)

Chess_Condor

Possible piece: Miner (M) 8 points?

The Miner is a stationary piece that can't defend or attack, but can be captured. Each turn the miner harvests one energy point from the earth. The miner drains energy from a 10 square radius preventing any other future miners, friend or foe, to acquire energy inside the radius while the current miner is alive.

Now that I think about it that is probably the most boring piece possible. All you do with it is stall xD.

Why is there an orange rook? No player is using orange. Is that James’?

HorribleTomato

Wow, there's a thing in the business I like to call being colorblind (im not but jesus).

Yeah it's James. I'll fix that and update the image.

fixed!

also, is the spirit being at 5.5 balanced? that's what it was in the original game, but a knight is 3. so that's a 2.5 over the +1 a piece usually gets for hybridizing.

We’ll just have to wait and see. The spirit hasn’t seen a lot of use, for some reason. We’ll make it up as we go.

hitthepin

Also, where is my Rook?

HorribleTomato

I might've not gotten it in frame. You can see it exists because of the lines, but it might just be higher. I'll check.

HorribleTomato

Oh, yeah. It's all the way up at rank 21, which doesn't fit in the frame. It still exists though!

The first one has been placed in this game by @Chess_Condor. We'll see how much value he can get out of it.

Woah there james, what's that rook doing attacking my queen? I don't care, but why?

Wanted to put a piece down and wanted to protect my king so it made sense to play a move that did both.

There’s definitely no ulterior motives here!

hitthepin

Also, Tomato, didn’t I advance my pawn?

Oh, but you couldn't place a lower point piece like a knight or a guard, right?

Sorry didn't make myself clear. I wanted to protect my knight, add a piece around my king and push away you queen who was way too threatening for comfort.
