Help solving please! Black to move. My first thought is Rxa4. gxf4. Kb4+. The goal to get the rook on a8.

You mean Rxf4 gxf4 Nd4+? After Kc4 Bxa8 Kxd4 you are winning. Advance the g pawn to g2 where it is protected by the bishop, white must cover the g1 promotion square with the King, then you can move the black king at your leisure to get the white pawn on f4. Just be careful not to stalemate the white king.

thanks Strangemover. I realized too late my move Rxg4 should have been f4. I play this guy a lot and yes my endgame sucks and we end in stalemate a bunch.Thanks!
