coan.net: Some knight fight tournys are set without a random start positon like the last team tournament and I see a advantage there if you study the game well. You can also end the game in several moves and if you play correctly and have a "good"set up with high numbers in your home side corners. I don't see a advantage with the colors at knight fight as long as you can see far into the game, and must always follow your opponents line of play. Now we talk about the advantages of the start colours but I think spider games and line games have the greatest advantage and white to some players like tenuki and masterx never loose white in spiders...or I think once in many years. I don't understand how starting on one particular colour can change things in knight fight as you can move to a different colour square on the next move, but that may be your secreat weapon, lol

Isn't it time to move this discussion to the Knight Fight board?

Marshmud: Have you ever wanted to move to a square & your opponents piece has that square covered & you can't move to it? THAT is the advantage.

If black picks to start on the SAME color square as white, then black will have the option to "cover" many squared and force white not to move there.... and white will NEVER have that same ability to "cover" any squares.

So as black, if I see my opponent going after a big 9x square, I will try to "cover" it so they can't... and usually they did not plan on that and end up having to go to a much smaller square.

coan.net: Yes, but not in the beggining of the game,but I do see the advantage of going first and checking out blacks possibilities first, and then change your white sequence to the black line....Yes I agre there is alot of advantages to knight fight, but never noticed what you brought up, thats all. Want to play a few games?
