Subject: Re: I'm curious...

That is a long game but I have one which now up to move 56 with at least few to go ... here ... I think I have a method to achieve mate (as white) but it hasn't come to fruition yet. This is unusual but when you get down to a small number of pieces in the endgame then it can take even longer than conventional chess ... and interestingly in atomic given the scenario of K+Q v K is not a win if black can get the Kings together.
