Double step


Nice article by Frank Richter: https://dieschwalbe.de/schwalbeaktuell.htm#bauerndoppelschritt

Only double steps, first attempt (someone should be able to improve on this)
(= 7+5 )

Thank you, Joost.
I kindly ask NOT to publish here h# with ONLY double pawn moves, as there will be a small addition to the article in next Schwalbe issue (at least, I hope so).

Thank you for the mention, Frank. I believe this may be my first in Die Schwalbe.

But this obvious fix is C+ Popeye

Seven white double steps can be done trivially with AlphabeticChess
(= 9+7 )

h#6.5 AlphabeticChess
1... a4 2. Ra4 b4 3. Rb4 c4 4. Rc4 d4 5. Rd4 e4 6. Re4 f4 7. Rf4 h4#

Unfortunately an illegal position (Bf1, although one could argue that the position is illegal in AlphabeticalChess anyway, and that legality isn't required for fairy chess compositions), but 8 double steps by all white pawns.

(= 10+11 )

h#7.5 Alphabetical chess

1. a4 2. Rxa4 b4 3. Rxb4 c4 4. Rxc4 d4 5. Rxd4 e4 6. Rxe4 f4 7. Rxf4 g4 8. Sxg4 h4#

Can be legalized by changing bf1 to 15f7, but I prefer this illegal version.
