Shotgun Chess is GENUINELY a cool game that also happens to frustrate me a lot, which is my own cross to bear. It's a bit like chess meets XCOM meets Into the Breach, and it shows. Check it out!
If you enjoyed the video, please consider hitting the Like button. It helps me out a lot!

I just want to point out the fact that the enemy pieces are so incredibly powerful. You’re out here with a whole SHOTGUN yet you require multiple full blasts to take down the enemy king, and hes so powerful he can just play normal chess and one tap you by simply moving to the same square you occupy.

Yeah, the shield algorithm is a bit weak and the visuals are a little bit misleading; as I understand it, it just checks that the target entirely contains the base arc and your firepower vs the targets health. The only way that that shot was makeable though was if all the pellets passed through either G6 or H5 on the way to H6.
