       +---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+
    8  |(R)| . |(K)| . |   | . |   |(R)|
       +---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+

       +---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+
    6  |   | . |(B)| . |   | . |   |(P)|
       +---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+
    5  | . |(P)| . |(N)| . |(P)| . |   |
       +---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+
    4  |   | . | P | P |   | . |   | . |
       +---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+
    3  | . |   | . | Q | . | N | B |   |
