Simple counter: Don't be French.

[-] problematicPanther@lemmy.world 27 points 8 months ago

don't be french aristocracy

[-] femboy_bird@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 8 months ago

Counter with the russian defense only if they play the napoleon gambit

[-] underwire212@lemm.ee 45 points 8 months ago

If you get to this point it’s far too late.

Generally though if you suspect your opponent is going to be using the guillotine, you want to try and either reduce inequality or increase security.

And for God's sake, don't mention cake.

Why don't they eat cheese burgers if they don't have food

[-] Senseless@feddit.de 5 points 8 months ago

You know what they call a quarter pounder with cheese in France?

They call it a Royale with cheese.

oh he's fine, that's just a coronation.... of sorts.

just tell your opponent "en pessant" and Just casually flip the board upside down.

but do it with dignity.

You point to the black king and shout: he is one who has power over you! I'm from another country and only here to visit. And you would trigger an international incident! Do you want (non-civil) war?

[-] No_Change_Just_Money@feddit.de 25 points 8 months ago

As soon as your king gets strapped to the guillotine, you have no more legal moves, and it is a draw by stale mate

[-] assassinatedbyCIA@lemmy.world 25 points 8 months ago

Convince the opposing pawns to overthrow their own king and recognise that there should be no war but class war.

[-] LifeInMultipleChoice@lemmy.world 4 points 8 months ago

It appears the pawns already turned, and 2 extra so I'd guess maybe the queen ran off with one of the bishops and became normal pawns for the other side.

Should only be 16 pawns right? 18 I count in the picture

[-] afraid_of_zombies@lemmy.world 3 points 8 months ago

I don't know but somehow the pawns look so cute in this picture

[-] DragonTypeWyvern@literature.cafe 1 points 8 months ago

Executing nobles gives you +5 to your Charisma stat, try it today

[-] kromem@lemmy.world 23 points 8 months ago

Let them eat C8.

[-] RoyaltyInTraining@lemmy.world 17 points 8 months ago

Should have gone for the constitutional monarchy five moves ago

[-] afraid_of_zombies@lemmy.world 13 points 8 months ago

Make sure they get the bishops to. Religion is far worse.

[-] Holzkohlen@feddit.de 11 points 8 months ago

I'd lob off our own king's head tho.

[-] Guntrigger@feddit.ch 6 points 8 months ago

What are they chopping off? He's already all crown.

[-] nexguy@lemmy.world 4 points 8 months ago

Yell KIDDING. I was just kidding. You didn't really think I was trying to attack you all this time did you? Gah.

[-] Tangent5280@lemmy.world 4 points 8 months ago

Free him from his mortal coil amiright

[-] shasta@lemm.ee 3 points 8 months ago

Maybe AI can help

[-] AdolfSchmitler@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago

Wonder what the top engine move is here
