Prohibited Moves

In addition to the repetition rules, some moves are not allowed even if they would normally be valid moves for the piece.

The following rules apply:

- Kings may not see each other
  The kings may not be placed on the same column if there are no pieces between them. This means that you can not move either the king or any other piece in such a way that would expose the kings to each other.

- King cannot be exposed to a check

  If you move a king to a check, you will lose. Because of this it is prohibited (and wouldn't make much sense, anyway).

NOTE | To see how HiddenLynx informs you of these prohibited moves, see the Illegal Moves section under the User's Help chapter.
