How does it work if you promote a pawn to a queen?

predicts YES

@JoshuaB Good question. I'll say that if you only lose if you lose your original queen.

predicts YES

@BoltonBailey Thanks!

Okay, this seems like it’d be pretty easy to do with Fairy-Stockfish. It seems like the game tree oughta be a lot smaller, since there’s now two loss conditions, so I’m fairly optimistic that this can be solved without too much hassle.

Whenever I feel like picking up a new coding project I’ll make sure to keep this in mind!
