	:Nope. The past is one point in time, the future is another point in time, and the present is in between. The Past only effects the Present when and only after you directly manipulate it. Think of it like two armies coming to battle. The Past is the two formations coming at each other, while the present is four different possible ways the battle could go, and the Future is some point in the Future in which the four possible realities resolve themselves. Moving pieces in the past is as though you are altering your pre-battle formation, so as to exploit your future knowledge of the enemy's movements in the Present.		:Nope.

	::If that is the case, wouldn't it make sense for a ripple effect from the past placing a piece on an enemy piece to cause that enemy piece to be captured? Essentially, the present piece would have moved onto that square on its previous move rather than where it was before the ripple effect, retroactively capturing the piece as it does so. Or that's what my understanding of it is telling me anyway.		::If that is the case, wouldn't it make sense for a ripple effect from the past placing a piece on an enemy piece to cause that enemy piece to be captured?

			:::Pieces captured in the past are lost in the future RAW, if you want them to be captured in the present as well you can make that your house rule, it’s not like any of this is in the least bit official but that would make moving in the past almost always the best move and you’re back to regular pleb chess aren’t we.

	You get One Turn per Present Board. Once you play each turn on each Present board, ~~thats~~ 4 turns, ending the Round. At the end of a Round, you resolve the Past with the Present, and then carry on those changes to resolve the Present with the Future. This happens only once a Round, at the end of each Round. Now, change the Past, you change the present, which changes the future. You change the Future, it does nothing else to the other boards but is necessary to get your Future King out of check or something, or to put Their Future King into check or checkmate. You can Skip your Turn to make a change in the Past or the Future. The resolution takes effect at the end of the Round.		You get One Turn per Present Board.

So assuming first(white), then WP1 has W and B both make a move; then play shifts to BP1 where B, then W, makes a move? (Assuming a fairly "normal" round).

	Also, in the case of moves in P or F, if after white's play on BP1 white decides to move on P, is black also bound by rule to similarly effect a change on the past state? (I'd argue against this as it makes for a more interesting game.) Never mind; I read back over and see that change propagation was covered. I'll leave the below here because I bothered to type it and maybe it'll be useful to someone else (~~houe~~-rules, tweaks, ideas, etc)		Also, in the case of moves in P or F, if after white's play on BP1 white decides to move on P, is black also bound by rule to similarly effect a change on the past state?

	In the event there's a perfect tie in the consensus of a piece's position, I assume the F position carries greater weight (thus altering R and P indirectly)? Can this cause annihilation in P such that it propagates forward and destroys the piece in F as well?

	:The F(Future) position is the WEAKEST in the game. Consider each piece has a level of Temporal Force. A piece with a TP of 4 has all four boards supporting ~~it's~~ existence in the future, because it is in the same spot on all four Present boards, while a piece that has does not have any ~~concensus~~ not only does not move, but also has a TP of 1, making it possible for almost any directly moved unit in the future to capture it.		:The F(Future) position is the WEAKEST in the game.

	Is history resolution recursive or singly iterative in nature? That is, would the above situation be instantaneous or have a round of windfall to allow history to "correct" the situation?
