15 | Pieces move as usual, but they all hide a special "power" |
16 | inspired by Mario Kart: | |

20 | The pawn (Toad) leaves a "turbo" mushroom on its initial square, |
21 | or on the intermediate one in case of a two squares move. | |

24 | The knight (Yoshi) let a surprise egg on its initial square. |
25 | See about egg effect below. | |
5abaabb3 BA |
26 | </li> |
27 | <li> | |
28 | The rook (Donkey) put a banana on a square diagonally adjacent to the | |
29 | arrival one, at random, if possible. | |
30 | </li> | |
31 | <li> | |
32 | The bishop (Wario) put a bomb on a square orthogonally adjacent to the | |
33 | arrival one, at random, if possible. | |
34 | </li> | |
35 | <li> | |

36 | The queen (Mario) can play a stealth move once in the game: |
37 | the opponent will only know that a queen moved - to an empty square. | |
5abaabb3 BA |
38 | A promoted queen also has this power if not already used. |
39 | </li> | |
40 | <li> | |
41 | The king (Peach) can "throw a shell" on an enemy reachable by a queen, | |
42 | once in the game. A promoted king also has this power, if not already | |
43 | used. The capture is done remotely without moving. | |
44 | </li> | |
45 | </ul> | |
46 | <p>The king cannot castle, and pawns don't capture en passant.</p> | |

57 | So the goal is to capture Peach :) If pawns promoted into king, then all | |
58 | of them must be captured. Since it still looked too easy, the 4 mentioned | |
59 | objects alter the move played, generally at random: | |
60 | </p> | |
61 | <ul> | |
62 | <li> | |
63 | A king or a pawn arriving on a mushroom advance one square further, | |
64 | while a knight jump another time in the same direction, if possible. | |
65 | Pawns can "eat" objects diagonally too. | |
549ca151 | 66 | Mushrooms have no effect on sliders (queen, rook, bishop). |
5abaabb3 BA |
67 | </li> |
68 | <li> | |
69 | A piece arriving on a banana (resp. bomb) is redirected at random by one | |
70 | square in an orthogonal (resp. diagonal) direction. If a piece (of any | |
71 | color!) stands on that square, then it is captured. | |
72 | </li> | |
73 | <li> | |
549ca151 BA |
74 | The effects can cumulate, as illustrated on the diagram: the pawn |
75 | "captures" the banana on e4, and is then redirected toward e5: mushroom, | |
76 | it jumps to the next square, which sends it on d5 eating the white rook. | |
77 | (We can imagine that the hope was to eat the black knight instead). | |
78 | A piece may ends on its initial square, move back, and so on. That being | |
79 | said, a given object can only be used once on the path. | |

95 | The egg case is more complex: a move ending on an egg triggers an effect | |
96 | chosen at random, positive or negative. There are four bonus and four | |
97 | penalties. They are introduced in a dual form: first the positive, then | |
98 | the negative. | |
99 | </p> | |
100 | <ul> | |
101 | <li> | |
102 | King Boo (*B) let you exchange the position of any pair of pieces on the | |
103 | board. | |
104 | </li> | |
105 | <li>Koopa (*K) drives the piece back onto its initial square.</li> | |
106 | <li> | |
107 | Toadette (*T) allows to place a new — random — piece on the | |
108 | board. If the piece is dropped on an egg, banana or bomb, its effects | |
109 | are applied. | |
110 | </li> | |
111 | <li> | |
112 | Chomp (*C) eats the piece, which is thus captured. If it's Peach, then | |
113 | bad luck, game over :) | |
114 | </li> | |
115 | <li>Daisy (*D) allows to play again with any of your pieces.</li> | |
116 | <li> | |
117 | Bowser (*M) immobilizes the piece (which is surrounded by a light green | |
118 | halo). It won't be allowed to move on the next turn. | |
119 | </li> | |
120 | <li>Luigi (*L) changes the color of a random enemy piece.</li> | |
121 | <li>Waluigi (*W) changes the color of one of your pieces (at random).</li> | |
