Hi Chris,
I guess you’re up to something here. Being a curious person I took my old wooden
board out of my drawer and set up the start position. Then I replaced the queens
on both sides with two kings from another set. Doing this with shaking hands, I
expected the worst. But surprisingly enough, nothing happened. To make it short,
the universe didn’t collapse. I even dared to make a move with that position,
nothing happended when I moved 1. Ke1xKe8 and won the game.

So maybe the rules of chess have to be rewritten and chess should be played with
more than 1 king for each sides.

Keep up the good work
Roman
