Post 1436 Key move 1.Rd2
Post 1437 Key move 1.Rf6
Post 1438 Key move 1.Kf3, Kh1 2.Kf2 mate. The main variation is only king moves. Even though its only three king moves in total its my first Durbar theme.
Post 1439 Key move 1.Ra2
Post 1440 Key move 1.Na6+, Kd7 2.Nc5 mate (1.e6, fxe6 2.Nc6 double check, Kd7 3.Rd8 is mate in three. Also 1.d7, Ke7 and no immediate mate)

Post 1385 Key move 1.b5 All of these last five problems will end up being some of my all time favourites. The zugzwang moves are very subtle.Last edited by Hans Jung; Tuesday, 5th November, 2024, 08:22 PM.
