    The Shah piece looks more like the crown worn by the Parthian Emperors. Maybe that's what it's suppose to be.

      Interesting. The only history I could find so far mentions the elephant and carriage. I will have to look into it more.

    “When the 'Pawn Pawn' is promoted for the third time and moves to the square where the 'King Pawn' is located, what happens if there is only one king left in play on that square?

    Could you please explain this so that I can better understand the “Pawn Pawn”, it is very important for me.
    1- Which square does it advance to if there is more than one situation where it can fork or the opponent cannot escape? In this case, do we have to choose the square it moves to?
    2- If we move to the square where he can fork or where the opponent's immobile piece cannot escape, can we not move to that square if the opponent can capture the “pawn pawn” using another piece?

      This is a great question, and the answer is not found in Manuscript 211. It states that when a fork can be made the pawn of pawns must move to attacking square, so my personal interpretation is yes, it must be done even if the pawn is lost.

      @@tamerlanechessclub3652 i have another question .when pawn of pawn arrive last rank for first time if there are two or more forking stuations .what stuation does pawn of pawn have to move . And the same question for
      immobile stuations, or there are two or more forking and immobile stuations. What stuation does pawn of pawn have to move. Those questions confused me so much. I think the player should have choice.

      @@muzafferckay2609 yes I agree the player can choose which fork or immobile piece to threaten. Many of these details are not documented in the manuscript so the best we can do is follow what makes the most logic. And I agree with you. I also give the player the choice.

    Very very complicated promotion rules. I wonder if pawn of pawns promotion rules where invented by Tamerlane during a game that he was about to lose. ;)

      @tamerlanechessclub3652  6 років тому +5

      If his opponents were smart, they would let him win!!! :) But yes, totally superfluous and convoluted. And the entire sequence from start to finish probably very rarely happened during play. But I still like the complexity, there is something appealing about it.

    Well I've never played this before but based on what you've told me, this looks like each game would be so different from the last, and there can be a lot more nuances and a lot more special circumstances per game. Seems like it would be more exciting than regular chess

      No, I was reading another translation of the MS 211 manuscript, and the act of moving the Pawn of Pawns to attack an immobile piece or forkable pieces, can be viewed as a voluntary one. You can chose to move it or not when those situations arise.

      Hi Gary. Thanks for following. The name of the elephant actually is dependent on the region and time period. In India it was likely referred to as "alfil", although once the game reached Persia it largely was referred to as the "pil" which was a word borrowed from another language as there was originally no word for elephant among the Persian people.

    The reason the pieces are so abstract is to circumvent Islamic restrictions on depicting humans and animals. Same reason Ottoman paintings look like children's paintings.
