Here's my attempt at a chess puzzle
Your task is to construct a legal chess position where:
- It is black's turn to move
- Black is in check
- Black has the greatest number of different legal moves possible
(A legal chess position is a position reachable during a normal game of chess)
For example:
Here, black has 4 different moves to get out of check (Qxh1, Bh2, Kg3, Kg2)
I was able to construct a position with 39 different moves. What's the best you can do?
