Go up one level in this thread


I thought Ed didn't want to give the full solution to leave some puzzling, but
appearantly he didn't really know either anymore.

What you do when a small piece attacks trough a high piece is, you count from
that moment on as if it is the big piece that's doing the attacking.

So you OR with the big piece (useless because the big piece will also be ORed
later) and add one to the attackers.

When it's high through low, you just go on ORing with the high piece (and add 1
attacker). This seems incorrect, but since you won't try the high piece until
the small pieces are gone, it doesn't matter.

So: high through low: count as normal attack
low trough high: count as an attack made by high.
