I recently saw a video on youtube of this special bishop move called "il vaticano". I tried to do it on the analysis board and it won't let me, is it a fake move or is it actually possible? thank you.

Il vaticano is a fake chess move invented by the AnarchyChess subreddit

Edit: for those who don't know, AnarchyChess is a place for chess memes.

It isn't fake

It's just a very old move that no one plays anymore, and everyone agreed it isn't useful

Hey guys, speaking of reddit, the chess.com forums work a lot like it, don't you think?

il vaticano is fake

Chess.com doesn't allow it.

Do you think that bishops are as useful as a Knight?

They are better in open positions, but they can't fork like knights, they can but it has more danger

kaelan256

Knights fork Queens

Bishops pin Queens

But queens can take the bishops directly but knights can't

kaelan256

At least you will be up a queen

Kb7 is still possible?

Or is it still check from those super special bishops?

Exactly its not even mate or can bishops suddenly move sideways like a rook and also jump over the c7 pawn
