Lori: What’s that?

Chess Guy: Rook factory. Every four turns I get a rook now. If I annex a third adjacent property, that accelerates to three turns.

Lori: Okay!

Uh, capturing on d4 then. Gotta bust up your factory.

Chess Guy: Can’t do that.

Lori: I can’t?

Chess Guy: No, sorry. You need to build a Consortium first.

Lori: How do I do that?

Chess Guy: To build a Consortium, you move both Bishops to the same file and leave them there for ten turns. For those ten turns, you can’t move a piece. Basically, building the Consortium counts as the move.

Lori: This is something else.

Chess Guy: You’ll pick it up pretty quickly.
