Kriegspiel thread for Dr T'Var - Elendil's Heir keep out!
Opened by Malacandra to help WES.

Here's the diagram.

Is there any way to "flip" the board in order to see from Black's POV? Thanks for your help with this. Much appreciated!!!

Yes, easily done - as soon as Photobucket plays ball I'll sort this out.

Sorry, viewed from within Chesspad it was rotated; once exported, apparently not.

Thanks! Will PM my move shortly. I've known EH for a long time. Never played against him in chess, though. Would he play a traditional game or try something out of book? SIGH He's a smart and clever guy. I'd best be on my toes.
Black seems to have a double disadvantage here. Not only one move behind in the opening, but also not knowing what that first move is -- well, makes it very hard to set up a defense as Black.
Right now, I'm playing as if this were a game of Battleship. We'll see how that goes.

Your f-pawn has been captured. The short diagonal from your king runs from e8 to h5 (four squares; the e8 - a4 diagonal has five).

Yes, there was no alternative to the capture since your King had no other squares.

Thanks!
Seems a bit easier to understand what's going on once the enemy pieces start running into each other.

Thanks for the chessboard update. I'm following along with my magnetic travel set, but it's nice to check and see that my pieces are all in the right place.
