Snipe Herding
Snipe herding is a common pastime for knights low on energy. Snipes follow a few basic movement rules:
- Snipes will never intentionally move into a wall or knight.
- A snipe who finds itself on top of a wall or knight will move a short distance in whatever direction will keep it off of a knight or wall.
- If a snipe cannot move in a direction without connecting with a knight or wall, it will not move, but it will turn in a different direction.
- Snipes that are in flight remain in flight. Similarly, snipes that are on the ground remain on the ground.
Using these rules, it is possible for knights to force the snipes into confined spaces.
