## Version history (last 2 releases)

### 2.0 — 2026-08-11

This update introduces a few new game rules:

• The Rider: Pawns can merge with a horse and form the rider. It can move like a horse and while unfrozen the pawn can dismount like it would normally move.
• The Pawn Dash: A pawn right behind another can jump over it moving two fields forward at once.
• The Fast Horse: Horses (and Riders, when performing horse moves) do not freeze if they capture another piece.

With this release some layout issues in the community tab were resolved as well.
