I cannot quite understand that, as a Bishop (in this game) cannot access any square that a rook cannot.

At least Bishop can jump while Rook cannot.

Also you can favorite the game as I did.

Your bFfhNfA can be called a Double Sword Aborigine (or something other with understanding that it’s forward Kangaroo + backward Ferz), and your fWbrFfD7lfNfrblA as Right Gun-Layer (looks very similar to optical gun), and its mirror will be Left GL.

My idea: because you call FA the Modern Elephant, I call WD the Modern Dabbaba, or better Modern War Machine.

The two rooks, bishops and knights do not differ and can no longer be distinguished in the course of the game. How is a strategic game supposed to come about then?

You can differ them:

  • in offline play by sticky markers;
  • in online by notation used.

BTW I have recently done the rules page.

I still have Astra (Rosetta) on your queue, but also I’ve recently created Astromech (even squares diagonally or odd ones orthogonally, AA[W?DD]). Try to guess who is Astromech)

Please remove these unneeded lines from Edit Metadata also. I’ve written new page, thank you, but when I tried to revert it to Members-only, error repeated. It shows that I’m veteran contributor with nine or more submissions, so I cannot publish more if I have nine submissions to review (even if it’s not).

  • I click “Post Your New Game”;
  • I enter index information and click “Step 2”;
  • Then I face impossibility to create new item due to this bug.

I have not located the page mentioned in your screenshot. What is its URL?

But not without errors… that’s its new answer on 2nd stage:

Hey, it seems like both logos in dark & darker mode have the same silver moon image in them. Can I suggest one replacement in darker logo? – change moon to khon:

which is the same piece but was drawn by me for another graphics btw;)

BUG WHICH HURTS THE CONTRIBUTORS OF THIS SITE!

We cannot publish anything new or edit metadata of existing pages! System stops us on the 2nd step, tells us that we are veteran contributors with more than nine published submissions (even if it’s my old acc without any pages on it), says that we cannot publish anything if we have nine submissions for review (even if you have a few or none of them in this status), and, to publish a new page, we should convert a members-only page to work-in-progress (which is also impossible because to do so we should edit metadata which it treats as creating new page) or collaborate with editors, which is the last remaining way for us.
