    Fun fact: When Chess was originally invented in India, instead of "Bishops", they had "Elephants", which where shaped and were named differently from the current piece, which is why most nations call the piece an "Elephant" instead of a "Bishop".

    5:45 the pawn "promotion" in chess makes more sense in Polish cause the Queen is called "hetman" I believe, which is like a historical military leader, kind of like a general. For example Jan III Sobieski was a hetman before becoming the king of PLC.

    The last one is called a Wall Of Flesh
    It plays banger music, shoots lasers, gets progressively faster the more you damage it, kills you if you get to its back side or if it squeezes you to the back of the board and it can be beaten easily with a star cannon with fossil armor
    It is also a reference to the hit game 2d minecraft

      as an Italian the 'alfiere' pronunciation was atrociuos lol*, but it's not an easy word for an english speaker, a lot of 'i's and 'e's. I really hope he knows Houdini :p btw seen from the outside, it feels Brits words pronunciation is not so granted if you are from US (and maybe from UK too). American english is more streamlined so it's easier to guess, but the 'historical' words are not easy for them, I feel the european trip(s) were kinda disorienting in a way :D Still, Drew won the internet for me with that, he's always welcome to come back
      *for how we write it's impossible to 'get wrong' a pronunciation, maybe the accent which we usually don't note, but it's vey often just simply on the second to last sillable, it's so also in this case al-fi-è-re

    I see you like Anarchy chess, but have you heard of the occult classic of Thud? It is based on the earlier dwarvish game of Hnaflbaflsniflwhifltafl. It makes much more sense than chess. Why have the pawns do all the hard work while the king stays out of danger when you could have all your pieces be equally superior to the other race?
    Much more logical. Speciesism just makes these games like 10x better.

    The 309th Air Division is an inactive United States Air Force organization. Its last assignment was with Continental Air Command, assigned to Twelfth Air Force at Hensley Field, Texas. It was inactivated on 27 June 1949. The division was first activated in 1944 in New Guinea during World War II as the 309th Bombardment Wing. The wing acted as a task force headquarters controlling forward based units of Fifth Air Force in New Guinea and during the Liberation of the Philippines. Following the war, it moved to Japan and served as part of the occupation forces until inactivating in March 1946. It was activated again nine months later in the Air Force Reserve.
