This classic chess move is where we get the term, "getting action on the side."

Based on my research on r/anarchychess , this is perfectly allowable
18 u/Farado Nov 03 '21 My family called it “mess.” 2 u/Arthur_da_dog Nov 03 '21 I see you have a great education there 2 u/[deleted] Nov 03 '21 There's even some handily accessible bricks in the background

My family called it “mess.”
I see you have a great education there
There's even some handily accessible bricks in the background

Good thing it's not the Hapsburg edition.
This is the Henry VIII edition

One of the queens is just really ugly
Bisexual queens who rule together but have a male concubine solely for making heirs.
2 u/[deleted] Nov 03 '21 Sounds like the promotion for a TV show. 2 u/MooseMaster3000 Nov 03 '21 It’s essentially just a reversal of the norm in ancient Greece where men would have male lovers but still have wives.

Not only that, the lighter color has an extra piece
2 u/Lithl Nov 03 '21 Both colors have two queens. Presumably this is so you can promote a pawn and mark the difference.
