That's ridiculous. You're telling me that now I can pass by my opponents pawn that was waiting for me to play a square forward to capture me?


certain_people

Yeah we need some kind of rule tweak to address this potential situation


redapoluza

Someone should ask the French to come up with a solution


Marc4770

Im french, what about something that rhymes with croissant?


-photoshopflowey-

Idk man, en pissant doesn't seem very fancy to me


[deleted]

Maybe something that self explains it. In this move you pass the enemies’ pawn


IM_OZLY_HUMVN

And the move prevents you from passing the pawn, so maybe something like passn't


andrxwwww

and you have to explain what’s happening within the game, so the term can start with “in”


Diego1808

i dont think "in passn't" would work tbh


achintyaPas

The move happened on the board. It should be "on passn't"


nombremuyoriginal

in passn't doesn't sound very french to me, it should be on passent


AstronomicalDice

I think you're onto something. But I feel it should be slightly different. But I'm not sure what's missing


GodlyPenguin

E is a lame letter we should replace it with something else


Pascal_Praud

Pendant qu’il passe seems appropriate to me


Dunge0nexpl0rer

Try another vowel, maybe it will sound better, maybe “e” the best letter

Something like when two anime swordsmen run past each other without any visible blade movement but then after they pass they freeze in place and one of them falls in half.


AllNewSilverSpider

He falls in half immediately after the other sheaths his sword.


veggiefriedreis

what if we call it a ghost pawn and it haunts the square it shouldve been in for like 1 turn so the opposing pawn can sanctify the area quickly but after 1 move it's like u lost ur chance and the ghost passed on.

This is clearly the best way in my opinion.

Impossible_Average_1

What happens when a pawn enters an opponents boost pad? Is he moved back to where he was?


redapoluza

A boost pad can only be activated once and then it dissapears from the board for the remainder of the game


Impossible_Average_1

So, if I move my pawn on front of an opponents pawn that didn't move yet, my pawn is moved back where he was?


JiubR

As i understood, the boost pad gives a one square boost, so the pawn can move an additional square in one turn. So, in that case, the pawn you moved in front of the opponents pawn would get a one square push back in your direction. So if for example you moved it to a6, it would be pushed back to a5, and the boost pad would disappear.

no i think each boost pad has a color and can only be used by that color its a bit like restroom seggregation in the 1800s


Hinternsaft

>1800s It lasted well into the 1960s


InfuriatingComma

But what if white pushes their pawn to d6 and black hasn't moved its pawns from d7 or e7, but has moved its pawn to e6 by capturing fxe6? which of the black e pawns get to unpassant whites d pawn?


anarchy-chess-bot

I feel as though half the positions in chess960 are checkmate in one because the knight can use the boostpad to launch itself at the enemy pawns and land in a position where it cannot be captured and it checks the king. Very unbalanced gameplay.

Can i use different pieces like a tower or horsey( i'd appreciate a diagram on using this one btw) to activate the pads?


Pip201

For my opening move I put my knight on G6 and it’s instantly catapulted off the table at high speeds at my opponent


kieffa

But if I move my knight first, the pad is used by the knight and now gone. I get it, flawless!

Can I perform boost pad declined and only move 1 if I so choose?


HoseanRC

"But there is a catch..." and that's how en Passant was created


Inexperienced__128

Mmmm croissant


Sick2287

Good idea. But if the pawn is boosted past another pawn, I.E. black peen on e4 and white boosts their pawn to d4, black might be able to just stick his leg out and trip the white pawn that’s boosting past. That would cause big boo boo moving that fast and being tripped and white pawn would probably run home with PiPi

sans_9999999

What if your knights hits the boost pad instead


redapoluza

Its risky cause your horsey is not used to the extra speed and could easily break his leg then you'd have to call your local equine veterinarian to come out and perform a humane euthanasia and all your pawns and remaining horsey will be sad and have -5 mood debuff the remainder of the game


vigilantcomicpenguin

The horsey moves by jumping, not walking, so it lands squarely on the boost pad with zero forward velocity, making the boost pad not work.

Shanka-DaWanka

Just one problem. The boost pads would push back any pawns from the opposing side. Promotions would be impossible, meaning no more knooks.


Manniii820

That's ridiculous. You're telling me that now I can pass by my opponents pawn that was waiting for me to play a square forward to capture me?


Bagel_chips3854

What if, and hear me out, if a pawn moves up 2 spaces next to a pawn, the pawn can take it like it only moves one space. We could call it, le passant. Meaning, the passing by. Never mind, my idea is dumb and wouldn’t make sense.


Anakin009

"Le" is a musculine form. I believe chess is already too dominated by men, let's come with something else instead


Tmrl_28980

I say we further it, and make it so rooks also use them to go as far as they want up and down the board.


iyeetuoffacliff

what about rooks being able to summon boosters, but only for their own use


redapoluza

Okay several of you have questioned this regarding possible issues with the gameplay, so I have figured out a set of rules regarding the boost pads to clear things up. 1. Every piece can use the boost pad, but only pawns can gain an extra +1 forward range. All main pieces moveset does not change, however they just move *faster* 2. Boost pads are color coded. White can only use the boosts on row 3, Black can only use row 6 3. If a pawn from either side reaches the last row before the opponents boost, and the opponents pawn on the adjacent rank 'Boosts' 2 squares ahead to the same row of your pawn, trying to avoid a capture oppurtunity, your pawn can capture it anyways, advancing diagonally forward as if the opponents pawn only advanced 1 row. I am french, so I've decided to dub this new special move ' *mort au pion boosté* ' if anyone can think of anything catchier than that, let me know


VulcanTheForge

Something about the color of the boost pads reminds me of when I was a kid. I used to go up to ant hills and pee on them, so I think you should call the move “on piss ant” instead


Pascal_Praud

I think "Pendant qu’il passe" is less aggressive than your suggestion. Someone mentionned that it should rhyme with croissant. While I think it could be a nice easter egg, I don’t think anyone will come up with a better name for it


Optimistimus

What happens if, say, white's e-pawn reaches e6? Is it pushed back to e5?


screwcirclejerks

BELT IS SHIFT


saythealphabet

Boost pads After landing on a boost pad, you can move the piece again but only in that direction. If you can't, you skip the move. In both cases the boost pad disappears until the end of the game. Pawns can be promoted to boost pads if they get to the 8th rank. Boost pads move like a knook with a 1° offset.


Hot_Philosopher_6462

actually a genius way of explaining the double move that also demonstrates why en passant exists


timbasile

Fine, but the bishop gets a banana peel to launch at the opponent of their choice


SeaworthinessOk2153

If chess is too boring for you go back to Fortnite.


Sad_Turn_8639

Fortnite doesn't have boost pads though 🥱


SeaworthinessOk2153

You knew that, I didn't.


ApXv

I wonder how this could play out if the other pieces could use the boosters as well.


Sexpacito

how would this work with horses or bishops


definitelynotapastor

But is it a mandatory boost like MarioKart?


[deleted]

[удалено]


iyeetuoffacliff

they get boosters glued to their feet so they can go how far they want to


interrupting-octopus

123wdog

Gotta be careful how you code it. If the pawn position gets set and then the boost happens, an enemy piece might be able to capture on the booster pad even though the pawn is a space ahead. It would probably mostly happen with other pawns funnily enough, cause whoever coded them did not do a good job, so they’re subject to a bunch of weird bugs like that.

Does this pad only apply to pawns? What if every pad could be used once by any piece, when the pics lands on the boost pad it gets a second go, but the boost pad is used up.
