    RB, you wouldn't know a cheater if he forked all your pieces in a single move.

    Edit: construction challenge. Make a position where no enemy pieces are attacked, and the side to move can make a move that attacks all 16 [or as many as possible].

    Are you going for the World Record for number of feet in the mouth at the same time ?

    No one cares - we're all patzers anyway so get over it.

    {No white pieces attacked} Nc6+ { 10 pieces attacked. This is probably the maximum.}
    [/pgn]
    That can't be the maximum. There is another dark square diagonal that is not being utilized.

    Construct a position where with one move 6 pieces are attacked.
    (There being none attacked before the move)




    ... without using a knight!

    This is also 6, of which one pawn twice!

    One could argue that Pe5 is under attack in the diagram, though. 🙂

    The pawn on e5 is the seventh on the board, so is not included in my count.
