    If we can hit that bullseye, the rest of the dominoes will fall like a house of cards. Checkmate.

      Remember, Kif, in the game of chess, you can never let the opponent see your pieces.

      This hurt a bit, surprisingly. Just a bit though.

    I swear every time I play that game, half my army ends up being pawns, the weakest piece.

    make sure that there a mirror behind your opponent, this way you can see his pieces

        OK, no, because I’m a huge cheese strategist. Feta and gorgonzola haunt my waking mind like specters of gastronomical pleasure, wraiths of fermented delight.

    Free to play players can at least restart their account until they get at least one 5* Queen, but even then it’s hard to beat the whales.

      In theory some configurations have stronger or weaker first mover advantage. This is known as white privilege.
