No.595 by Gani Ganapathi – Surprising transformations of the black royal S in SneK Chess! (JV)


Definitions:

SneK Chess: When a piece is captured, another piece of the same color and immediately below in the sequence (Pawn)>King>Knight>Bishop>Rook>Queen transforms into a piece of the same type as the captured one. If no such piece exists, the capture is normal. When there is a choice, the capturing side decides which piece will be transformed. (definition from KobulChess.com).

Royal piece: Piece that executes a function of the King on the board.

Neat idea of anticipatory protection to the mating piece! Wish the twin could have been avoided.
