Well, unknown poster, you've likely never suffered through a technical committee, with everyone with <strong>strong</strong> opinions! If we were modeling this game on, say, a computer standards committee, half the pieces selected at random each turn would have to attack if at all possible, and some pieces would try to attack even if it <em>wasn't</em> physically possible, and others would be attacking squares that were now vacant but used to contain opposing pieces.
