The chariot can move diagonally inside the castle, so the general has no escape.

For "castle" read "palace".

Sussed. I forgot that in Janggi Pieces can move on the diagonal lines when in the castle.

Hi,

https://www.goldtoken.com/games/play?g=14444088. I am in check, but system says checkmate. I don't see it. My plan was move general back to e9, then if check I remove with chariot.

Game is probably lost, but I'm learning and want to understand and therefore do not want to be caught out by system error. Anyone?
