Sticking a knife in the board and having the Bishops investigated for sex crimes.
Can't black respond with … b2? En passant, all memes aside
- No en passant would only work if blacks pawn is on A4.
  
  Ah, I thought you could capture with en passant from either square. Goes to show that I haven't played chess in years
damn that's a good line. I only saw the Be4+ line that trades the rook for the queen
- Same here
The best move would be the white pawns finding common ground with the black pawns and overthrowing the remaining aristocrats & clergy. Then together they can stop the endless cycle of pawns being sacrificed for the whims of the upper classes
Decolonise
the only winning move is not to play
- How about a nice AI simulation of The Torment Nexus? Beginning now.
Need more chessposting
hmm I thought there was checkmate because the queen is all but trapped. h5 - king can either take or back up to h7, either way rg3 traps the king on the h file... and now I see the problem. if the king takes the pawn, it's not quite trapped because it can keep moving up and down the h file. ok, guess you do have to actually take the queen first.
concede
I saw the Queen trap but assumed there was a mate.
No.
