Subject: Re:

ughaibu: Probably it is thought that because otherwise one of the knights would often be dedicated to the defensive task of enhancing the movement of its king, making the play less dynamic. But I didn't try it that way.

By the way, without the restriction about knights it might be unclear whether a knight connected with its colleague could capture a piece.
