14.Bxg5+ is still checkmate cuz after the king moves then the other king will be taken.
Interesting configuration in #2. It can be made more symmetric.
Bishops are on the same color.
U know the variant where the white pieces start where the black pieces are, and vica versa? All the pawns are 1 square away from promoting.
Here's a sample game
I wonder how they determined what the best set up is at the beginning of the game. Did they just experiment and found that this one had the most interesting play?
