Which way is "past"? Can only knights milti-kill, since they can "jump" past the first point of contact?



Once they intersect a piece they can keep moving, but they can't exit on the other side


Hmmm from testing it on the replit site someone posted, you can actually move through the first point of contact. I set up a case where my queen was protected by a pawn and used a bishop to take both pieces.
