Play the bot and apply it

Choose one of six Wayward Queen starts and set the bot from 600 to 3000. The coach recognizes the double attack, the f7 battery, all four defenses, the Qb3 trap, the h8 capture, and the failed queen invasion.

Wayward Queen Attack variations

The six starts contain the main three-move position, all four book variations, and the Qxf7# set piece. Each assigns Black and White opposite, observable targets.
