Emperor
Your king may also move like a queen.
Everified
- Piece
- king
- Rule
- Your king gains queen-style movement along ranks, files, and diagonals.
- Conflicts
- Does not grant jumping. Does not allow moving into check. With Regicide, the Emperor king may still be captured only if the enemy has a rule allowing royal capture.
- Emblem
- Radiant imperial crown with long rays.
- Image prompt
- Simple circular badge showing a radiant imperial crown with sun rays, gold vector heraldic style, no text, readable behind a king icon.
Internal implementation notes
Adds queen sliding move patterns to the king. The king still remains royal, cannot pass through blockers, and cannot end on an attacked square unless another rule changes check legality.
