TM + TL = DISCOVERED ATTACK
Compiled by notyetagm
--*--

If your masked line piece is lined up with a target (you have TL) or you can vacate the line of your masked line piece with tempo (you have TM), then you have half of a discovered attack! You need to make a forcing move, probably a threat to the enemy king or a <DECOY> involving looseness, to create TL for your TM or TM for your TL.
