Thinking about this a bit more, it occurs to me that if it is really to be 'Anticheckmate', then the victory condition needs to be a bit different. Something like: <blockquote> Kings attack opposing Kings, anywhere else on the board. The only thing prevents the opposing King from attacking your King is if you have a piece attacking the opposing King. Thus, if your opponent's King becomes 'unattacked', you are in check, and if you can't attack it in your immeadiately following move, you are checkmated. </blockquote>
