We are playing a game. I am white and you are black.
My e-pawn have gone up to e8 and been promoted to a rook. My king has not been moved in the game, so in my next move I put my king on e3 and the rook on e2.
How do you responde ?
Originally posted by DagamoStyleYou're joking, right? You can't castle with a promoted rook. I'd inform you that you've just made an illegal move.

Originally posted by DagamoStyleI would refer you to the FIDE laws of chess, article 3.8(a)(ii), which explains why that is not allowed.

(The rules were changed in 1972 to prevent it 🙂)

Originally posted by HolyTyou should have called it mate in three e8(R), Rf1+ and then O-O-O-O# or just get rid of blacks d-pawn and then Kg2 is forced
White plays e8=R. Black plays Kg2 (not forced):
[fen]4R3/8/8/3p4/2p3p1/1pP3Pp/1P4kP/R3K2R w - -[/fen]
White to move and mate in 1.
