Bxh3 3. gxh3 { Austin Lockwood: You should try using 'conditional moves' for this (enable in preferences) } 3... g5 { Barry: Done that - what does it mean? } 4. fxg5 { Austin Lockwood: it means you can propose a sequence of moves that your opponent can either accept or reject (so in standard chess you can agree to a certain opening, or speed up forced moves). In suicide there are often long strings of forced moves and this just speeds it up a bit. } 4... Nh6 { Barry: But how do I feed it in? } 5. gxh6 { Austin Lockwood: Just mouse it in - the same as normal moves. If you want to reject the moves I just put in enter a move as normal (you only have one move anyway though) - otherwise click the 'accept conditional' option } 5... Bxh6 6. Nf3 Bxd2 7. Nfxd2 e5 8.
