Stalemate[edit]

Does anyone know if stalemate is a draw, or win for the stalemating player? (Unless I overlooked, Christian's site doesn't say.) Ok, Ihardlythinkso (talk) 11:24, 8 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know, but since captures are limited, it seems like a stalemate would be very rare. And since the object is to checkmate, I assume that a stalemate would be a draw. Bubba73 ^{You talkin' to me?} 15:11, 8 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Logical! (Thx.) Ihardlythinkso (talk) 09:37, 9 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Forcing a draw[edit]

If I understand this game correctly, due to the extremely limited capture moves, it seems very easy to force a draw by simply moving all of your rooks onto your own wall, uncapturable and shielding your king from checks. Then you just move your king around. MarSch (talk) 11:26, 15 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

No, you wouldn't be able to shield from checks, given 12 wall squares, but only 8 Rs. Penetration into your castle w/ always be possible. Ok, IHTS (talk) 03:41, 28 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
