Thank you for the feedback. I submitted this puzzle as a 2*, so I agree it's harder than a 1*.

Brilliant puzzle. I however think it's harder than a single star. Working out the interactions here isn't all that easy in my view.

a bit hard to get started for a 1 star but once you get it it really flows and show its a brillant puzzle

It turns out you can make this into a much harder puzzle by not reading the rules properly and missing that it’s anti knight haha. Still a very fun puzzle and wraps up nicely at the end when you realise the missing rule!
