'I hereby also stake my claim to the discovery of the Crooked Queen and the Crooked KnightRider. Duh. :-)
In the opening position, a Crooked KnightRider on b1 can play 1. zNNb1-e4, double check and mate.'
I am having a hard time conceptualizing the Crooked Knightrider and how it moves. I want someone to help me visualize its movement. Could someone do an ASCII diagram for me? And / or try to break it down for me so I understand it better.
I think I'm on the verge of understanding it but I don't yet. I did read that Joerg Knappen's idea for Nachtmahr was derived partly from Betza's impression that the Crooked Nightrider was too powerful, so Knappen thought to break it down into different crooked nightrider components. I have a feeling if I studied this essay more carefully, it would come to me but I prefer to have a bit of help.
