Clairvoyance Achievement Guide

By Zero

It is possible for the Troll (the opponent) to violate an unrevealed page of rule at the very beginning of a game, but the chance is fairly low. Resetting the game for the Troll to violate an unrevealed page by chance is also very time consuming, since the opening dialogue is quite long. The purpose of this guide is to find a consistent way to force the Troll to violate an unrevealed page, without the dependence of mere luck.

Rule 26: Don't move the Gifts

There are two ways to reveal a rule page: to "execute" the valid movements of a piece by either the player or the Troll, or when the Troll accuse you for violating the rules. Of all accusable rules, only rule 26 cannot be revealed by "executing", as it is inexecutable. In other words, rule 26 can only be revealed by a violation.

How to force the Troll to violate rule 26

Rules will not be revealed immediately when they are violated by the Troll. Therefore we can take this as an advantage to avoid revealing rule 26, and force the Troll to violate it.

Play normally, capture as many black pieces as possible.
Leave at least 2 gifts on the board, this should be done when playing normally. Make sure you don't move any gift yourself during a payback.
When the Troll has about 2-3 pieces left, wait for a violation, use the payback to move his king far outside of the chessboard.
Kill your queen by moving it into a gift, if she hasn't died yet.
Capture all black pieces until the only black piece left is the king, which should be outside of the chessboard at this point.
The Troll will have no more valid moves. It's extremely unlikely that he will move his king, the only things he will do now is to move a gift or move one of your pieces. Wait for him to move a gift, accuse him for violating the unrevealed page 26.

For anybody struggling to do this achievement using this guide: it seems like the gift moving was patched, now the easiest way to get this achievement is to NEVER move your king. This way rule 12 (how the king moves) will never be revealed.
Then you just have to kill all black pieces except the troll and shuffle your remaining pieces (but not the king!) around until black king jumps the way it can't jump. He does it pretty often.

May have been a patch because this doesn't work anymore. The Troll will either move his King back towards the board, or he will move your pieces. After 50+ moves he has not moved one gift.
