Correct. He plays GO, not chess.
So, I recently received a magnetic travel chess set for long trips, and was astonished at what I saw when I read the manual for how to play chess.
#1. See for yourself:I mean, these guys are selling chess sets. They should know that check is not the end of the game...
#2. Perpetual Check(mate?)
Actually, I believe this is called a win for whichever side checkmates...
#3. So, it clearly states that the King has a cross on top, but in the diagram, the king is in the wrong square!
#4: The rules for castling are as illustrated:Except... those don't have crosses on them, so they're queens! Is queen castling some new thing I don't know about?
#5. The company (Amerous) apparently decided they wanted to add a new rule to the game. They incorrectly stated that a pawn is required to capture if they can capture, which is not the case!
As you can see, in the diagram below, white doesn't have to take!
Let me know in the comments what you think of these horrendous errors made by a chessboard-manufacturing company!
This seems like some kind of parody
At least the pieces move the way you want them to. They should just refer to fide for rules. Does the manufacturer need to do more than just manufacture?

You might be right, but the OP never said the set was cheap. :-)

When general chess discussion gets too general...
this is horrifying people, thank you for sowing this treacherousness
BTW everyone, the board was relatively cheap, but it works great. The only defect is this manual.
mhm
