Imagine you're in charge of chess and for some otherworldly reason best kept secret, it is demanded that you immediately implement a polemic, game changing rule.

What arguments would you use to justify the change before the whole chess world?

cobalt fable
#

en pessant is already rule

unborn depot
#

Would you have to be mated twice

#

2nd one is the only one that won't break the game

outer pewter
#

En Passant should be forced cuz like what's the point if you only use it sometimes, it should be a rule like the king moving one square and just be forced. It will increase the usage too

unborn depot
#

TRUE!

outer burrow
#

Lemme guess

#

I'd say being able to promote to enemy pieces better

#

but okay second or fourth

What's the point of en passant when it's not forcsd

vapid garden
#

Being able to Castle through pieces because saving the game is worth more than them

crystal talon
#

en passant easily

#

En passant is funny but the best answer is probably being able to castle through pieces. I can imagine a scenario in which that's the best move for the position

ruby creek
#

yea, castling through pieces would create some nice puzzles, and could be pretty useful in an actual game to save you from a mate

#

en passant is funny but it actually has an interesting effect on opening theory

#

for instance alekhine's defense is actually decent now: e4 Nf6 e5 d5 exd6 is forced

velvet shoal
#

if pawns couldve promote to kings the games would be insane
