en passant help by
spudsrfr123@yahoo.com
lets say a white pawn moves from row 2 to row 4 (a double jump), and a
black pawn is on row 3 to the right or left of the white pawn, can the
black pawn move horizontely to row 3 directly behind the white pawn,
and capturing the white pawn en passant? or does an en passant move
only work when the offensive pawn moves diagonaly to row 3, behind the
defensive pawn?
