If I understood correctly, 'c7' and 'e7' are not correct since they are connected diagonally to the other checkers.
Yes my bad, I understood task wrong
To clarify: having checkers on c7 c8 and d8 counts as there's a path between any 2 using only orthogonal moves?
If so I'm gonna plagarise your entry and improve it to 17 ply

"where all of your pieces are only connected to each other vertically/horizontally, not diagonally"
The word "only" here seems to suggest they shouldn't be connected diagonally, but then it says:
"None of your pieces can be connected only by diagonals.",
impying that some of your pieces can be connected by diagonals, just not only by diagonals.
