very nice, the capture free rendition of invisible castling on the queen side.

I found the following for the fake castling task,


rn2kbnr/p2pp1pp/1pp4B/5p2/4NP2/2PP3b/PPQ1PqPP/2KR1BNR
9.5 moves C+

1. Pd2-d3 Pc7-c6 2. Fc1-h6 Dd8-b6 3. Pf2-f4 Db6-f2
4. Re1-d2 Pb7-b6 5. Cb1-c3 Fc8-a6 6. Cc3-e4 Fa6-c4
7. Pc2-c3 Fc4-e6 8. Dd1-c2 Fe6-h3 9. Ta1-d1 Pf7-f5
10. Rd2-c1

9.5 moves. It's suspicious the fact that this is shorter than the previously shown O-O case (?)

Best,
Roberto
