Chess Titans peasants strikes behind the captured piece
I played a game of Chess Titans where the AI captured one of my peasants by moving his peasants behind mine... Apparently this problem existed in Windows Vista chess also, why isn't this known bug fixed? Or at least leave the chess game out of windows if it doesnt work.

That is a rule in chess called en-passant, not a bug in the game ! Wiki entryAsrock K8NF6P, AMD64 3200+, 1.5GB RAM, Palit Geforce 8400GS 256MB, 500GB Maxtor SataII, Asus 1814BLT optical

Apparently this problem existed in Windows Vista chess also, why isn't this known bug fixed? Or at least leave the chess game out of windows if it doesnt work. Here ya go Trikke: En passant (from French : " in passing" ) is a move in the board game of chess . Enpassant is a special capture made immediately after a player moves a pawn two squares forward from its starting position, and an opposing pawn could have captured it if it had moved only one square forward. In this situation, the opposing pawn may capture the pawn as if taking it "asitpasses" through the first square. The resulting position is the same as if the pawn had only moved one square forward and the opposing pawn had captured normally. The enpassant capture must be done on the very next turn, or the right to do so is lost. [ 1] Such a move is the only occasion in chess in which a piece captures but does not move to the square of the captured piece. If an enpassant capture is the only legal move it must be made. This rule was added in the 14th or 15th Century when the rule about pawns having the option of initially moving two squares was added. The rationale is so that a pawn can not pass by another pawn using the two-square move without the risk of it being captured.

it is like running past an enemy without your eyes on him and exspecting him not to step in for the easy kill. he may decide not to if he sees something of more interest to him like the kings wife bugging him out
