? At least a mistake. A MUCH better move. Stuff on that later, it doesn't help anyone, but just to be safe I'm not saying anything for now...

What, my move? Yeah, I had had a plan, but I didn't quite figure out the order of the moves, and then I realized I had done it wrong... Anyway it's not the end of the world 
.
It is all good, but... can I share some openings? (move 1, not in relation to game)

And actually, that may not be a great idea, since there are so many different variations...

Unless we only did one for Bulldog w/Witch, since it seems to be the most popular.

This is for a game of Bulldog Chess with Witch between unc07 (white) and Fly-Eagles-Fly (black).
Game rules:
Board: 10 x 8 (see image below).
The pieces:
Guard (G) - Moves and captures like a king.
Witch (W) - The witch is transparent to friendly pieces, and she also makes all adjacent pieces (friend and foe) transparent to friendly pieces (but pieces are not transparent for the witch). The witch does not capture other pieces, but she can be captured. Although pieces are not transparent to the witch, she is very agile; she combines the movement of queen, knight, and can jump orthogonally and diagonally two squares. Transparency of a piece means that other pieces can move, attack, and capture right through the piece.
Board Setup:
Note the position of Black's king and queen are switched compared to classical chess. This is so the guard and witch are equal distance to each player's king and queen.
Castling:
The rules of castling are similar as in classical chess, however, with the board 10 squares wide, the king travels three squares rather than two. The rook finishes adjacent to the king. All squares between the king and the involved rook must be unoccupied, with the exception of the witch and pieces made transparent by the witch.
Misc: Pawns play the same as in classical chess. Pawns can promote to queen, rook, bishop, knight in addition to guard and witch. Promotions are unlimited (not restricted to pieces that have been captured).
Other rules of this game are identical with rules of classical chess.
unc07 plays White. Good luck to both players!
