If you wanted it to be any more accurate then there should be like, 100 times the number of pawns.
the cool thing is that there are enough pawns that it's basically a won game, if the damn pawns could all see their actual enemy
Unrealistic, this seems to be winning for the aristocracy.
Absolutely winning for the aristocracy. The two rooks alone can run it down the a or h file and get to the whole back line, which is then defenceless
The two kings checkmate each other
This just makes me wish I were any good at chess cause I feel like the non-pawn side would be able to win pretty easily but honestly I’m not sure
there are actually a few million replacement pawns just out of shot, for realism
swap the colors and would feel even more historically accurate
I’m so dumb, I stared at this for like a minute before I understood lol
