They belong to the thread because it's a garbage dump.
No longer following.

Not exactly a garbage dump, but the thread does go through phases. Nearly all the recent posts have been made by spammers, but at times quite a few good illegal positions have been posted. A good illegal position is one that seems likely to be legal and requires a careful analysis to explain why it's illegal. The spammers post positions with both kings in check, more promoted pieces than missing pawns, pawns on the first rank, etc.

Someone should make a position that looks obviously illegal, but upon closer inspection looks legal, but upon even closer inspection is illegal.
Nice try, but.
Also note the rook can capture something on c1, from the first tank. Black king c4, white captures on d3 with with c pawn check, and the king goes to b3 from there.

I don’t know how to post an image, but, a rook battery that is checking the king in the direction the battery is pointing.
