Build Me A Pawn Wall!
$begingroup$
I have a very unique chess construction task for you all today: Build me a pawn wall!
I challenge you to construct a game that ends with both sides having 6 pawns on a file. This means that 6 white pawns on alligned on one file and 6 black pawns on another.
Before you call this an impossible task, I will let you know that I have found it myself to be possible for I have proven it possible already.
Do it before anyone else does!
UPDATE: Now that it has been peer proven possible by Hexomino, I hereby challenge you to find the fastest way possible that you can!
