Your example on Légal_Trap

Unfortunately the board does not make sense, as Qxd1 is mate in 1. I tried to look up your source but couldn't find the relevant game. I reverted the example for now, but feel free to add it when we figure out the correct board! Isaac (talk) 01:58, 20 November 2016 (UTC)

Two minor pieces attack White's King

	a	b	c	d	e	f	g	h
8									8
7									7
6									6
5									5
4									4
3									3
2									2
1									1
	a	b	c	d	e	f	g	h

White's queen is immune from capture by either of Black's minor pieces in analysis that dates to Howard_Staunton's Chess-Player's Handbook, 2nd ed., 1868 which further proceeds: 8...Qd4 9. Qxg4 Qxe5+ 10. Kf1 f5 11. Qf3 Ne4 12. d3 when the author proclaims "you (White) have a fine game," an evaluation supported by the strongest chess engines circa 2016 after further continuing 12...c5 13.dxe4 c4 14.exf5 Qd6 and White has several winning options including 15.Bf4
