I somehow got the impression that the Hunter would capture by moving as a King and simultaneously killing pieces located on those squares. That kind of pieces do exist, like the Tenjiku Shogi Fire Demon. The description should have been "captures like a Knight or two squares orthogonally" and then it would have been clear.

Hey, Vickalin made the description.

Time warning... for the second time, Vickalin.

Sorry for slow play. I'm still travelling and have about 8 hours of driving now. I'll be back home and be able to play normally one-day from now. Very sorry - I'm in a big rush now to finish my drive.frustrated.png

I think you're right. Tomato and I are playing based on the assumption that the hunter captures by jumping to one of twelve squares in the diagram.

Adding "captures like a knight or two squares orthogonally" would probably be a better description, because it makes it absolutelly clear, even without a diagram. I might change the opening rules this way. Tomato and I are already playing that way, but it would be better, just in case the hunter is used in other games.

And btw - it's a great piece. This has been a fun game, except that Tomato keeps complaining because I'm too slow.frustrated.png

I'm back home, so I hope I can play at normal speed now (usually one move per day).

Hey vik, I need a mod for my game vs aidanb1(and I KNOW this isn’t the right place to ask, but evert won’t do it, fly won’t do it, and Martin won’t do it until next week)

I'll be moderating your game in the Big-dog tournament soon (starts Tuesday). I might be able to moderate aidanB1 vs Scooter also (starting a few days later).
