My bishops cast "River of Salmon", which causes the bears to do nothing but eat and sleep for the rest of the game, while my knights cry out "Ni!" and distract the black queen with a shrubbery. The rest of the game is plain sailing.

Promote all bishops to pope and shit together in woods.

Too fast. Too soon.

Didn't know Leshy played chess.

Cocaine. Saw it in a movie.

You can do the woods response, whereas both queens will choose the bears to go into the woods with them rather than any male pieces. This leaves black without any frontline but also sacrifices both queens.

Do we get to see what happens on the woods board or do we just have to kinda sit at the chess board?

[–] prof@infosec.pub 3 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

It's visible but you can barely make out the pieces because of all the foliage.

Here's a view of the woods board (it's below the trees):

You're not supposed to play around it, it's meant to make you lose. But don't worry, The Angler will only play the bear wall on your first run through or two to prevent the player from progressing too quickly. Once you find the Stinkbug and the Knife, he shouldn't summon them anymore and you can progress past him. Make sure you're taking time to look around the room for puzzles/secrets.

You should mirror their move as white bears are stronger than black bears.

[–] CubitOom@infosec.pub 12 points 1 day ago

Those are black bears, the scare easily. Just make your pawns clap, yell, and maybe even bang some pans together and they should saunter off.

Death touch mantis god or scissors

hook is good too

Feed them one of your horses. But put 2kg of C4 in the horse's butt first. Bears can't resist spicy palomino. Them yeet them off the board with the C4.

White does look to be in an unbearable position.

Horse to f3

Thought they were panthers at first, in which case I'd say have the FBI monitor their comms and assassinate their leader.

But it's bears, so, yeah, like the other guy said, cocaine. Lots of cocaine.

Horse can jump over other pieces

Tarrif opening, but I haven't learned any endgames.

[–] masterofn001@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

King gets rich, pawns die. The end.

[–] Evolith@lemmy.world 1 points 18 hours ago

Then the king makes the sons of the pawns fight in the rematch.
