Hi all!
These are the first puzzles of 2026.
This month just one set, just to little time for this and my pc died (RIP) so this post is made on a new one.
Hope you enjoy!
For those who want an explanation of the theme of the puzzles:
A chess cross-pin (or double pin) is a powerful tactic where one piece is pinned in two different directions simultaneously, often by pinning a lower-value piece to a higher-value piece, which is itself pinned to the King, creating immense tactical pressure and leading to material loss for the opponent.
Puzzle time!
GL on solving!
These are some funny puzzles from a course I'm following atm.
I hope you enjoy them.
