Here is a shorter one

pawns-32 moves

knights-8 moves

bishops-4 moves

rooks-4 moves

queen-1 move

king-7 moves

58 is theoretical minimum

Avatar of Ilampozhil25

actually the queen-2 moves cuz it cant phase through pawns so id say pretty optimal

The queen can "move through pawns"
d4 e5 dxe5 and later Bd6 exd6 can free the pawn d4
and d5 Nc3xd5-f6-g8 can clear pawn d7
for Qd1-d8 in 1 move

So 56 is the theoretical minimum

This is illegal indeed: 8 white pawns and 2 white queens

Also the black king is in check by 2 white pawns that have not moved
