    The thing I love about this position is that White has a 466 to 3 material advantage over Black, yet Black can mate in one and White can't.
    LOL...better sign that scoresheet quick before the opponent notices the position is slightly illegal 😀

    Add a White piece and 2 bP for an Illegal Cluster
    [b]Five solutions


    Illegal Cluster: An Illegal position that becomes legal if any unit (besides a King) is removed.[/b]

    Hey, those queens aren't mine! It's my opponent's fault. He stole them all. You know what they say, "Cheaters never prosper."

    The real question is: Who had the motive to steal them?

    Well, my opponent did at first, until he realized they smothered him. Power corrupts 😉

    It's a little ironic that your opponent managed to position the stolen pieces in a way that would allow you to checkamte him with a knight. Aint that a kick in the face? Way to play along with it 🙂

    To avoid mate he must allow stalemate or draw by 50 move rule.

    But White is not in danger of getting mated.

    My apologies btw. While this statement is mostly true, I hadn't taken the en passant exception into account.

    Aside from en passant, I believe such is true though.
