I won my second game :) Then I read the instructions :)

(I think it's worth reading the instructions / design discussion, even for someone that is not going to play the game.)

[spoiler alert?]

I didn't realize the "combo" mechanics, but I intuitively made many combos because I usually used the bigger piece to capture the smaller piece. So, for e it's a success in the design.

Is it possible to win only with knight? My strategy was to keep alive as many queens as possible.



Yup Knight-only was possible, but clunky. Queens sure provide a nice power spike towards the end.
