Our guidance
How should I prioritize the value of my pieces during the opening phase?
In the opening phase, prioritize your cannon over the horse. The horse is initially restricted by the wrenching leg limit, making it less effective than the cannon, which operates with greater maneuverability similar to the car during the early game.
How does the effectiveness of the cannon change as the game progresses?
The cannon is powerful early on, but its utility decreases during the endgame. Without pieces to act as shelves, the cannon becomes less effective than the horse, which gains significant strength as its movement restrictions disappear in the final stages.
What is the primary defensive role of the phase and the Chevalier pieces?
The phase piece is specifically designed to protect the positions of your other pieces. Meanwhile, the Chevalier piece serves the critical defensive role of protecting your handsome, also known as the will, ensuring your leader remains secure throughout the match.
