What's interference (I can only guess that it interferes with something) ? 😛
This is a game of mine where it did occur. Unlike in tactical studies this wasn't made in a mating attack ather it was done for me to get a queen. I think that the interference move 40. ... e2 is my best move so far and probabily this is my best game so far too. A pawn sac for the center and a continual bind. 🙂

Originally posted by Mad RookReinfeld treats x-rays and skewers as the same thing, but I think Weteschnik has the right of it. I'll post an example of what he calls an x-ray tomorrow.
I think some books treat x-rays the same as skewers, but I think there's a slight difference. Skewers are always with the intent to capture material, but an x-ray can be either offensive or defensive in nature (protecting a piece through another piece). At least that's my opinion.

How would you call the move 23 i did with black, a sacrifice?

Black to play and mate in 4
1...Bc2!!
The White Rook and Queen are watching c4 and b2, respectively. After one of them captures, it interferes with its comrade's line of defense.
