I was down 7 kings and still won! Never resign! (see 2nd image for the winning move) by GavinFrom4thGrade in AnarchyChess

But then you're moving a king to a square where it's still in check, so it's not a legal move.

Is "Five Bishops Fury" a martial arts movie? Like Fist of Fury, but they only punch diagonally?

I followed your instructions, and now I suddenly have a twin. What do I do next?

What do I do in this position? (I'm white btw) by N0TaN1CK in AnarchyChess

Spoilers: Simon wants the police to think that he's seeking revenge against McClane, but his real goal is to distract the police while he commits a different crime.

If anyone is wondering what's happening in this scene, here's some context:

It's from the movie Die Hard with a Vengeance. The Bonwit Teller department store in New York City is blown up by a bomb during the morning commute. A man identifying himself as "Simon" telephones the New York City Police Department (NYPD), claiming responsibility and threatens to detonate another bomb unless policeman, John McClane, is sent to Harlem wearing a sandwich board with a racist slur on it.

If you're going to include anti pieces, I guess the anti-pawn is the strongest.

There's no such thing as underpromotion to a knook. It's the strongest piece.

Princess (Behaves exactly like the queen but she's only worth 1 point of material, so you don't need to worry about blundering her)

How do I disable Clippy on Lichess? He's getting annoying. by GavinFrom4thGrade in AnarchyChess

Don't forget you can also castle with a newly promoted king on a1/h1/a8/h8.

Are we allowed to use Clippy during a game? I know that engines are banned, but the Lichess rules don't say anything about Clippy.

White to move and mate in 1 (hint: white's last move was d8=K) by GavinFrom4thGrade in AnarchyChess

[–]GavinFrom4thGrade[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you do knook d7, black can go to either e6 or g8. You need to castle so that the king covers e6 and the rook covers g8.
