      pawn -> queen

      pawn -> rook

      pawn -> knight

      pawn -> bishop

        Someone should inform the devs there is no reason to pick anything but queen and knight.

              Yeah, ‘google en passant’ is an r/AnarchyChess joke.

              Unless you are in on it, in which case damn, you’re stone cold.

              In theory, you can always promote to a rook just to show off. I have no idea if it’s considered a bad mannered move.

      But it has kings and queens and knights, armies of pawns and thick towers to defend them during merciless battles. It also has bishops, but I much prefer the French name: les fous aka the crazy ones ;)
