36 Queens in horde chess
In this blog post you will find out how I promoted all 36 pawns in horde chessInsparation
I got the inparation from a Youtube short were they showed how they got 34 queens. Not 36 but 34. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/sRJExEcq6gQ
World Record?
I could not find any recorded fooage on this, so i think I have a world record?
Execution:
I called up my homie on discord that also played a bit of chess and told him what to do. Move by move we were getting closer. "What?! 300 moves is the limit?" Now we had to also do it under 300 moves. I like my idea that I created were he should go to my 1st rank with his king and shuffle it there. I knew that i had to keep some of his pieces alive, because if not it would have been a stealmate.
1 MORE QUEEN!
For the last queen I had to get creative. Because If i moved that f2 pawn it would be a checkmate. So I re-routed all of my queens from that diagonal to not give a check
Checkmating:
Now at this point I have promoted all 36 Queens. But I wanted more.
As you can see here, If I took the knight on f1 it would have been checkmate because the queens are occuping the h2 square. So what do you do? YOU RE-ROUTE YOUR QUEENS!
And fiannly after 287 moves I checkamte! (I even uploaded a Youtube video on this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p0puwKHILaA
