Application Description

Thai Chess: A Digital Adaptation of a Classic

Thai Chess, played on an 8x8 board, shares similarities with classical chess but features key differences in piece setup and movement. This digital version allows for single-player AI matches, local two-player games, and online multiplayer.

Piece Setup: The board dimensions are identical to standard chess. However, the initial arrangement differs in two ways:

The white queen starts on e1, and the white king on d1 (each king is to the left of its queen from the player's perspective).
Pawns are positioned on the third rank (white) and sixth rank (black).

Piece Movement:

King: Moves one square horizontally, vertically, or diagonally (no castling).
Queen: Moves only one square diagonally.
Rook: Moves any number of unoccupied squares horizontally or vertically.
Bishop: Moves one square diagonally in any direction or one square forward vertically.
Knight: Moves in an "L" shape (two squares in one direction, then one square perpendicularly), as in standard chess.
Pawn: Moves one square forward vertically and captures one square diagonally forward, as in standard chess. Pawns promote to a queen upon reaching the sixth rank.

Winning the Game: The objective is to checkmate the opponent's king. A stalemate results in a draw.
