I'll play c5.  No handicap, eh?  You have spirit.   :)

Maybe that's why I go by "Bloom". :)

Knights go two steps in one direction, then one step to its left or right...

Knight to A...3?


And thank you, sensei. :)

I have one correction to make, there: Your move is alright, but the knight doesn't just move two spaces up/down and one space left/right; the knight can also move two spaces left/right and one space up/down.  So a knight in the middle of an empty board would have eight total moves, not four.  Your a3 knight can move to c4, not just to b5 and b1.   :)

And c2, but Bloom's Pawn is there, preventing that move. ~Charlotte

That is what I have said, as Dianke taught me... though it does sound a bit inaccurate.

Two squares in one direction (left/right/up/down), one square to the Knight's left/right (with the knight's first two squares being considered as its "normal" squares)...
Alternatively, can be called L-shapes.

Knight to C4.

I must admit, Dianke certainly has a... unique way of phrasing stuff.
