Gotta give it to the trebuchet man, to nail a king in his throne with a horse from that far away, that is math as fuck.
“now a little to the left aaaaand…” YEET
That piece is called a knight, so there should be a rider getting tossed over there with the horse.
Maybe that little black smudge is the rider who bravely volunteered to go first and test the trajectory.
Impressively fast reload!
@samus12345 well, no, that’s a common misconception. The technical term is Horsie.
Fetchez la vache!
Google en passant.
En passant is a French term meaning “by peasant” and it dates to the French Revolution. It means that pawns can capture sideways if they really want to. It’s because they normally capture at an angle of 45 degrees, but if they move to the front of the horizontal square it’s really only a matter of being like 60 degrees or so, depending on where they were on the originating square.

No, it means “in passing.” “Par un paysan” would be French for “by peasant.”
Holy hell
En passant is French for in passing.
The French word for peasant is paysan.
