Rules
Chess with magical connections is a type of chess in which a piece changes its properties if it is supported by two other pieces.
For example, the king is located next to the knight and the rook on the same line with the knight supports him. Then a horse supported by two figures will additionally be able to walk like an elephant.
The pawn on its side of the board does not participate in such support.
