This is how she set up the board:
This is how it should be normally set up:
Its typical for new people in chess to mix up the placement of king and queen in middle, but its another level of blunder to mix the knights and bishops, which indicates you havent played a single game in your life.

They're using a game that nobody cares about as a background prop in order to appear intelligent and sophisticated but didn't set it up correctly.

Oh. Well if you're playing anything other than the normal chess then I have no idea and you have no one to blame but yourself.

Indian classic doesn't have en passant and the Kings are on the other square from international chess. Also some other stuff.
Also Indian chess is normal Chess, that's where chess comes from, then the westoids keep adding random new rules to keep it "interesting".

I knew that 'normal' would get you.
En passant annoys casuals like myself who know how to play but that's about it. But doesn't that just mean you remember the King is on his colour instead?

yeah but then you would end up mixing it up at times if you play both kinds.
