Queen H1 to F1?
Edit: Iโm still an idiot.
Pg2
Edit: Apparently I'm being downvoted by somebody who doesn't understand white starts on row 1
Qd3 Pg3 Qf5
Qd3 Bg3 I think, followed by promotion
I think the definitive solution was already found further down the thread, but I think this could still work
Qd3 Bg3 Nf4 Kh4 ... at that point it becomes a sloppy chase but White takes an indomitable lead, taking B and a pawn easily
Bg3 is a check, followed by black promoting their pawn to queen
Oops, you're right. I went kingblind
That's what I would have thought, leaves the King nowhere to go and there's nothing to block/capture the Queen.
Black is moving down, Pg2
Doh! My bad, 40+ years since I played.
I'll shut up now ๐ค
Pawn to G2?
