I have since updated it to include one more illegality. Hint, the b pawn is no longer on the first rank.

Side note, I love that I can update the link in my post here, I spotted that last illegality after I initially posted and was incredibly disappointed in myself for forgetting it at first

Is it the rook on a2? I'm not sure if that counts as its own illegality since we have no idea by what wizardry the pawn got on a1.

also Kbin doesn't update the link, so I had to go to sopuli.xyz to see the updated image :D

That's it! Now that I think of it, keeping White's a pawn at a2, moving Black's b pawn to b8, and moving the a1 rook to the middle of the board would probably make for a more illegal board, but I've already changed it once
