That was a complicated position! The two best moves (24.Nf5! and 24.Bxe6) both involve sacrifices, and take some serious calculation. You will get better at that with practice. But I think you need to work a bit more on your "attacking mindset." I know you were worried about your hanging knight on d4, but if you move it, and allow the exchange of queens, your attack is over. So that's the last thing you want to do! Now maybe, after you've exhausted all the other possibilities, you may have to move that knight after all, but you need to exhaust every possibility first. Look at attacking moves! Try out every forcing move, and don't give up on your attack so easily. Of course, you'll lose a bunch of games along the way, but that doesn't matter. Your aim is to become a better player
Complicated tactical position in game with Alexander-bot
Thanks. I'll try to remember the importance of the queen as an attacking piece and to avoid if possible queen trades with an ongoing attack. I tried vs computer from 24. Nf5! with Natasha (2000), Alexander (2450) and Maximum (3200). It's not too hard to win against Natasha but I would say Alexander is tricky and Maximum is hard. I also used Stockfish 14.1 to simulate best play from 24. Nf5. Black got checkmated on move 78. White avoided trading queens until late in the game while black kept offering to trade queens.
The second best move Bxe6 is easier to find and also wins easily. I don't think I would have found Nf5 myself. Besides Nf5 white does not have that much options to save material. The candidate moves are Nf5, Bxe6, Nxe6 and Rxg6 and the last 3 are not hard to find.
In a game with Alexander-bot, I was attacking as white with an Alekhine's gun structure and the bot caused interference with 23... Ng6 . This gave the following position with white to play:
I blundered on move 24 with Nde2. The engine recommends Nf5 as best. I'm having trouble with this position. I went on to lose the game but 24. Nde2 was my only blunder.
