Aren't you on browser?
And I'm open to suggestions.
Yes and two opening moves look like the same pieces. Sorry don't have a better board but will check now.
I just found a new supply of forks!

I dont get what you mean

ETA I think I get what you mean. But I don't see a solution other than bolding the letters which will make it much harder to edit when replying.

The two pawn moves look like the same piece. They both look like the same "P". I guess one is lower case and the other is upper case?

Looking for a board with real pieces. Also diagonal lines are hard to follow.

(The old "P-K4"-style notation used N for the knight...)

Why do this here when you could use a chess site (with a more convenient interface)?
Do you want to play a board game, digitally or in Lakewood NJ? PM me. (Can be asynchronous, i.e. take turns whenever)

The game Onitama is now a free-to-play app. It's a smaller game in which the range of moves available to you (with any piece)
are on cards. There are 2 cards in front of each player and one in the center. When a player makes a move, the card they used
goes into the center and the card already in the center goes in front of them. The moves thus circulate between the players.
(There are 16 cards, but only 5 are used in each match, making the game pretty variable.)

Sorry but that is like asking how many strikes you get in baseball. You really want me to google a link for you?

It is Friday so: Unlike the other pieces, pawns cannot move backwards. Normally a pawn moves by advancing a single square, but the first time a pawn moves, it has the option of advancing two squares. Pawns may not use the initial two-square advance to jump over an occupied square, or to capture. Any piece immediately in front of a pawn, friend or foe, blocks its advance.

Check up the rule, it’s called En Passant

Please educate me. A pawn making a double-step move from its starting square can capture?

en passant would be the other pawn. not the starting pawn

No, you’re right actually, I read the earlier conversation too fast, and misunderstood the question. I was trying to make up for you winning before.. although en passant is still a cool rule that unfortunately too many young “grasshoppers” don’t know

Yes, I read the other convo too fast

To be fair, @username was definitely experiencing confusion regarding the en passant rule, but nobody explained it to him/her
