Interesting...

I didn't think much about condensing the lists.

It seems like you can have 16 pieces if nothing gets captured and all your pawns
promote. And you can have 8 pawns.

So I was going to do my piece list like this:

int piece_list[52];

piece_list[0] is a 0-terminated list of white pieces.
piece_list[17] is a 0-terminated list of white pawns.
etc.

Comments?
