Wow, I’ve never even heard of en passant. These kind of niche obscure rules seem antithetical to the elegant nature of chess.

- bluedevil2k 2y agoThis and castling strike me as the kind of rules where a King like Henry VIII was losing and decided to castle for the first time ever and his opponent was too scared to say anything to stop it.
