Perfectly edged the AI…

Today I thought: Would it be possible to push the AI back into the utmost
edge field of a chessboard while maintaining 3 Queens and 8 Rooks?
Just for aesthetic reasons? I played almost 30 rounds to find out!
Mostly I ran into stalemate or checkmated it before my goal!

Check, Mate!

Again I had to wait for a Test-Computer to be prepared for installation of a test application.
While waiting, I decided to play Chess again and trying to bone the AI again.
As it is rather difficult to gain six Queens AND NOT to Stalemate the AI.
Stalemate means that the opponent can’t make a move without being checked.
