12 ( +1 | -1 ) here's a dumb questionis long-castling legal if the b1/b8 square is under attack? only the rook passes 'through' that square.

19 ( +1 | -1 ) to everyoneBut the real tough question is how to get your tiger activated especially when he gets too close to the rabbit or the river or ... err.... the tigress ;-) I am sure BBG will agree with me. We did a lot of analysis the other day....

32 ( +1 | -1 ) That's news to meI have always played under the assumption that if any square between the K and R or either piece that is to castle is under attack, that castling was not possible - even if only the rook.
I'm too lazy to look this up, but just for the record, would someone be kind enough to post a link on this?
