  • Ah I didn’t realise analysis was a membership feature.

    I should really learn how to mate with a king and a sole rook...

    Also need this, came unstuck with it myself the other day

  • Also need this, came unstuck with it myself the other day

    Having looked it up, it boils down to:

    Use rook to reduce the "box" available to the enemy king.

    If the box cannot be reduced, move your king towards your rook.

    Force enemy king to corner then support mating rook with your king.

    Don't allow a stalemate!

  • Yeah basically force a corner right? I’d still count on myself getting it wrong though and need to nail it down.
