An international grandmaster once said, you can't know too many positions like this. I tried several ideas, all taking too long, and finally decided to keep Black in CHECK, and see what happens: [Ng5×h7...Nf6×h7] 1. R×g6+...Kh8 (forced) 2. R×h7+...K×h7 (forced) 3. Qh5# Thanks for the prelude moves, iron_flower 😁

Thank you for the origin info...

This position looks very real, and has that appearance of ripe for harvesting. An international grandmaster once said, you can't know too many positions like this.

I tried several ideas, all taking too long, and finally decided to keep Black in CHECK, and see what happens:

[Ng5×h7...Nf6×h7]
1. R×g6+...Kh8 (forced)
2. R×h7+...K×h7 (forced)
3. Qh5#

Thanks for the prelude moves, iron_flower 😁
