Building the Double Check
Part of the Core Motifs section of Coddy's Tactics & Checkmates journey. Lesson 23 of 35.
Double checks are built. Load the rear piece behind a front piece that can check, with a threat so there is no time to unload; or drive the king onto the line with a check he can answer only one way, then fire. And when the gun points at you, step off the line first.
