These are simple illustrations rather than strong opponents.

Check is having ten points worth of pieces on the far rank. Pawns can double-move anywhere as long as there is no exposure to en passant. Captures on home rank destroy the capturing piece. I had promoting pawns become kings on the next move. Mike Nelson, 2005.
