Thanks, Arch. I will post screenshots of the first move tonight. So far it's 1. d5 for me and Ed replied by bringing out a Pegasus for an immediate mating threat!

On my tablet even my diagrams are cut off. I know what move I want to make but need to boot up my PC to make it.

Two moves ago I had hoped to bring the Neutron Star out without moving the g-pawn, but it turns out it's a slider.

Ed sent me this picture last move, lol. He said "Doug will fall for it."

Uh oh, that doesn't sound good!

Pulsar freezes bishop and goes back to home square. Or something like that.

Steven, what is your opinion of that trade?  I lost an Archbishop (you would hate that I think!) and had a Bishop petrified but in return I got a Bishop and a Pegasus/Wildebeest - I'm not really upset!

Guys, I wish I understand. Doug is playing with Ed, but it is Doug and Arch posting, and Ed is not Arch or you kill me, right? If you want me to get more confused, continue like that. LOL. Prends moi pour une quiche.
OK, never mind, I don't care who is who, is not my problem. That game looks interesting. The intro process looks similar to Pioneer chess from Mats Winther. What are the available pieces and their moves?
