While playing the game with fantasychess I noticed the following feature
not explicitly mentioned in the rules: A leader may capture a protected
wyrm when there is a forced hatching in the next move. The leader cannot
be captured by the protecting piece and happily walks out of check in the
next move. Hence sometimes it is favourable not to be able to hatch.
