I am currently working on testing a corrected Hostage Chess preset I have written. Until I can get home and work on the code itself, I am posting the game I have been playing for safe-keeping. 25. P*f7 should have been recognized as a check, but it wasn't. 25... N-b; b*h4 is illegal for not getting the King out of check. 26. P f7-g8; B-g8 was not allowed because it said no B was imprisoned. But one is.
