Description
A new twist on Chess. This knight and his horse are from the Museum of the Army in Paris France. I love how the silver plays against the blues in this image.
As in the game of chess, the knight moves on an extended diagonal from one corner of any 2×3 rectangle of squares to the furthest opposite corner. Consequently, the knight alternates its square color each time it moves. The knight is the only piece that jumps over any intervening piece when moving and castling being the only special instance in which pieces jump over one another.
