I see the mate-in-2 moves.
(took me a while though
)
I like the idea of moving our pawns south, but that would not prevent him from winning.
I'd say protect the king by moving the knight, but I'm not sure as to wether it should be Ne7 or Ne5. In short term they seem equal to me, but Ne5 moves our knight closer to the battlefield
Come to think of it (this post is taking me 20 minutes
), ne7 is better. If we do Ne5, our pawn at f6 will likely be taken by the queen as a consolation prize. Plus it will put our knight out in the open.
I'd like to keep our queen where it is, it is keeping the whole SW region in check.
My vote goes to Ne7 (though I don't like blocking the rook at e8)
Hulk, do you have any input regarding the pawns? I didn't see how they could prevent the knigh/queen->checkmate setup.
Keep up the good work Eye, you're an entertaintment to a lot of us.
