Citadel Chronicle

Standard chess movement, castling, en passant, four promotion choices, king safety, checkmate and stalemate. Original bounded piece art, sound, English/PT Help, legal previews, solo Undo and cursor-following zoom.

Choose White or Black against a labeled tactical bot using the same movement rules, exactly two local humans or two signed-in online humans.

Digital draws are automatic at the third repeated position, 100 half-moves without pawn movement or capture, insufficient material or the disclosed 512-ply safety limit. Threefold/fifty-move claims are automatic here; no FIDE referee or tournament-clock certification.

Online has a public replay-validated board and sixty-second moves. Results are casual host-managed and unverified. Help stays live; departure/background aborts without result, with no reconnect/migration. Portrait preferred; landscape and native Standard/Theater/Fullscreen preserve the session.
