I was counting on the ice to freeze on move 60 in this ice chess game... But I am forced to move my king in check right now. It doesn't make sense since I know that the ice will be between the attacking rook and my king on move 60. I shouldn't have to move my king. Well, I could move him to A2. There is nothing in the rules defining this situation. I was counting on the ice, so I should not have to move my king. Responses?
emmett: Well if you don't, black will capture it... since the ice does not come back until after blacks 60th move (right before your 61st move)
But it is an interesting position - that is if white puts black in check on the 20th move, should black have to move his king even though right after that ice will block the check?
BIG BAD WOLF: Well, you are right on the first point. I didn't quite realize that the ice came after black's move on 60. I thought it was after white's on 60.
