Unless I've been told wrong, it's a little known rule that if a chess pawn uses it's 2-spaces-on-first-move ability and incidentally lands next to an opponent's pawns, the opponent can then move his pawn diagonally to land behind the pawn and take that pawn. Given using a munchkin pawn can move two spaces at any time, this should make him succeptable to that rule any time he pushes two spaces and lands next to an opponent's pawn. Of course, this could be some BS rule that someone told me for no reason (nobody's ever used it against me). Maybe I should look stuff up before I spend time typing it out.

It is a valid move, called
En passant ; and I, too would like to know the susceptibility of Munchkin pawns moving 2 spaces on a non-first move.
