Subject: Stalemate

I am quite certain it is possible to stalemate in this game, but it certainly never happened until yet :-)

I tried a screenshot of a possible stalemate.

stalemate in extinction

Last move : 1. h6-h7 ; Na3-b1 stalemate

Since there is no "chess", stalemate is quite unlikely to happened.

Subject: Re: stalemate

Sorry about that, I removed the link

Here is the final position:
White Kh1, Pc6 Ph6
Black Kh2 Bg1 Rg2 Pc7 Pe6 Ph7

But I admit it is not a natural position... I could have win before, was just wondering if stalemate exists...

Dark Atomic would be silly, but there is no force win for white! I would play 1...e5 or 1...g5 randomly, then if pawn explode 2.. Qh4 and win ;)

By the way, I would rather play 3-moves dark atomic then 800-moves anti-backgammon !

Dark Maharajah would be much dumber, since white can physically not win !

Subject: Is stalemate possible?

Would a position like white king a8, black Kb8 + pawns a7 b7
be a stalemate if it is white turn?

Did this already happened?

Do you know some "atomic" chess problems you could post here?

M.
