Here is a position I composed with the purpose of having each color piece attacking a piece of the opposite color. Intent was to have as many attacks and counter attacks as possible. Also added many pawn qweening possibilities just for good measure. Hope you never play into this position: 8/PPPPPpPk/3rq3/1b1r2b1/2BR1B2/3RQ3/pppppPpK/8 w Challange: Try to compose a position that has as many attacks and counter- attacks for each piece for each side as possible along with pawn promotions. You should end up with a very tough position that takes your chess program a long time just to grind through a few plys. Post your position for others to try. CM6K on a PII 300 takes a long time with the above nightmare position just to do a 4 ply search: 0:00 1/2 13.33 g7g8Q+ 0:24 1/3 10.69 g7g8Q+ 6:04 1/4 8.49 g7g8Q+
