Tanks in advance,

You can not castle with an empress (nor amazon, nor elephant, nor queen).
You can neither capture a dragon en passant, nor capture en passant with a dragon.
You can not promote a dragon.
You can castle with a neutral Rook (where possible), because this is considered a color attribute of the unit.
Similarly, you can castle with a chameleon-Rook, an Einstein-Rook, and semi-neutral-Rook (among others), because these are sometimes considered an attribute of the unit (rather than an altered movement pattern).
FYI: The dragon seems to have a strange rule: no pawn movement from the 1st rank.
I can not say whether this is universal, but it should generally be considered a violation of the default pawn movement diagram (adding an additional idle state, to the pawn's movement diagram, is more costly).
Nevertheless, that may be how a dragon is officially defined. | | No more posts |
