Yes, it's something like that. But player must have an open line, a rook or a queen for that. If you have this (Made this specially) - why not? Logically, this move is correct on this board.

My board doesn't look so pretty!

'The one game I played,
against Graeme Neatham, I was in a constant state of panic.'

Joe, it's for the first time. Rooks and Queen are so mobile. Bishops are not mobile as in Chess. If they come from one part, it's difficult to replace them to other part for attack. Rooks need an open line. I think the game is more drawish, than Chess.

My opinion on pieces:

Knight - 2 pawns
Bishop - 2 pawns
Rook - 6 pawns
Queen - 9 pawns
