herding around ~25 queens was also fun building fortresses (since enemy can't cross board border by capture) is also. fun.

  theoretically there's a design for "indestructible" fortress (rhoburb, you are a genius) 1) fill corner board with pieces 2) cover the border (from inside) with pawns 3) cover the promotion square on the border with the king king can't exit the board, pawns can't walk backward to leave space, filler doesn't allow these 2 to make way --- the real holy grail that will never be achieved I fear

      Nice. A lot of people are still making flawed fortresses, just popped a black fortress with the help of tor and they were actually around and tried to defend it. So sad. muwahahah
