Illegal move, that would be your knight.

I am assuming you mean G2 -> G3 to move your pawn forward?

Please confirm.

it's a pretty nice set that's for sure.

I assume you mean A1 -> C1?

Your rook to take my bishop?



Yeah, it's a gorgeous set... only cost about £50-70 if I recall... my gran asked me to pick something & that's what she usually offers me. Bought from a toy shop, near my favourite bakery in Basel, Switzerland. Very cheap for the quality and finish of the set & I wanted her to get me something I would keep for the rest of my life

 

[crinkleshoes]

G8 -> F6

 

[crinkleshoes]

d3>d4

B8 -> C6
