Subject: Longest Checkmate in Chess from DTM Endgames?

Author: Ed Trice

I think Stiller had a DTC of 242 for one of his 6-piece endings (was it RN vs.
NN?) and I do not recall what the longest DTM is.

Also, I think with some of the 6/7 piece tablebases being built now use only DTC
since DTM gets more difficult as you add pieces.

Does anyone know what the longest DTM in chess happens to be?

We now have a DTM of 269 in Gothic Chess, so I am wondering is this is the
longest checkmate in any type of endgame database.
