Either one would have to make some sort of exception, like 'When there's nothing left but Pawns and Kings, then you can promote to anything' or 'A Pawn can always promote to a ..er.. Man' -- or one would have to somehow shorten the game so that Pawn-and-King endgames never occurred (e.g Extinction Chess, which follows my rule in a trivial sense). Edit Form You may not post a new comment, because ItemID Pawn promotion does not match any item.
