Knight can move to block bishop
What? Pieces can't move over other pieces... This isn't fucking checkers.
Try it sometime. The game will let you because it’s a valid move
Only once you convince it it's actually a ghost and it can go wherever it wants but then you risk a haunting.
Can confirm: I'm haunted by a guy on a horse
Don't be silly, basically you can get off the horsey and go around the obstacle, but the this doesn't work for eg a pawn cause what are you going to do, split in two?
While is this technically possible, it takes too much time (about 2-3 turns depending on the size and fitness of the horsey).
That's what they don't tell you. "Horseys can jump, the Germans call them The Jumper." Yes, but at what cost?
