Toroidal Chess Sudoku #5 (Final one) - All Pieces!!
(Published on 23. June 2020, 03:00 by Rotstein)
-Normal Sudoku rules apply
-Each Digit is a chess piece and have the following restrictions:
-A pawn needs to be diagonally connected to at least one other pawn (i.e. must touch diagonally)
-A pawn in the first row of the grid is promoted, becoming a queen (and, in that cell, queen restriction apply)
-A knight cannot repeat its digit in cells separated by a knight's move
-A king cannot repeat its digit in cells separated by a king's move
-A queen cannot repeat its digit in cells separated by a queen's move
-A bishop can only appear in dark cells (but can repeat along its diagonals)
-A rook is just a normal sudoku digit
-1 and 2 are pawns
-3 and 4 are knights
-5 and 6 are kings
-7 is a bishop
-8 and 9 are rooks
-All restrictions apply around the grid as if the opposite edges were connected, here are some examples:
-A king in R1C1 would rule out R9C2, R2C9 and R9C9
-A queen in R1C1 would rule out the main diagonal from R1C1 to R9C9 normally and also the diagonal from R9C2 to R2C9
-A pawn in R2C1 and another pawn in R3C9 are considered connected
-A knight in R1C1 would rule out R2C8, R3C9, R8C2, R9C3, R9C8 and R8C9
NOTE: queens are never considered as pawns (i.e. if a pawn is connected to a queen and not connected to another pawn, then the pawn is not connected at all)
NOTE²: Pawn can be connected to the same or different digit (i.e. could be 1-1; 1-2; or 2-2)

although the queen restriction were clear, I thought it could be misunderstood and changed some words, but no change to the puzzle
