If you get checkmated in Shotgun King it should end the game
Gabiluzbad
And not make you actually play it out
Gabiluzbad
that's just how chess works???
BattroidBattery
agreed
BattroidBattery
I guess the logic for checking every ability combination you've got might be a bit much by the end of the game?
Cute Quinn
also complicating it is things like "If I fire at this exact angle and the shots distribute just right, it will kill all the pieces threatening me at once"
Gabiluzbad
you can't fire if you're being threatened though
Gabiluzbad
So that's a non issue
Cute Quinn
you super can
Cute Quinn
you just need to click through the shields
Gabiluzbad
the fuck are you talking about
Gabiluzbad
what
Gabiluzbad
what
Gabiluzbad
that's stupid and badly explained
Cute Quinn
the game in general explains almost nothing
Cute Quinn
it'll stop you if the shot MIGHT put you in checkmate basically
Cute Quinn
like if there's an uncertain chance that the shotgun spread will hit the piece you want, it'll block that as a Maybe Checkmate
Cute Quinn
but just keep clicking past the shields and it'll let you try
Gabiluzbad
god
Gabiluzbad
Well
Gabiluzbad
regardless
Gabiluzbad
this seems like a good combo
this seems like a good combo
Cute Quinn
yes
Cute Quinn
honestly since it does warn you in a maybe like that imo it should also warn you if a shot is going to expose you to a discovered mate
Gabiluzbad
ALSO THAT YES
Gabiluzbad
THat's how I JUST died
BattroidBattery
FYI
BattroidBattery
if a shot is 100% going to kill an enemy threatening you, you do not have to click through the shields
BattroidBattery
but the main source of uncertainty in the game is the shot distribution so most of the time you don't actually know the results
