+       Before every move, players see only what their pieces can reach.
+       That is to say: empty squares where your pieces can go,
+       but also occupied squares where captures can be made.
+       For example on the illustration next, after 1.e4 d5 white sees a black
+       pawn on d5, the squares e5, h5, b5, a6 and all four first ranks.
