BANNERET is a game, free to play in the browser.
You never move a knight. You plant a banner. Every knight on the field charges it at once, in a straight line, and does not stop until something stops them. One rule, and it cuts both ways Momentum kills. A charge that never started is a death. A knight that has covered at least one tile tramples any pike in its path and rides straight through it, several in a single charge, if they are in line.
A knight that covered zero tiles and ends beside a pike still standing is killed. So you cannot break a pike you are standing next to. Ride away first, and come back at it with speed. Pikes never move. That is the point of pikes. Knights also stop when they reach the banner, and when they run into each other. The thing that directs your army is the thing that bunches it up and strands it.
Direction is decided for you Each knight charges along the axis it is furthest from the banner on, and commits the instant the banner lands. No steering, no stopping early, no going around. You choose one tile; the whole field follows from it.
