A (Hopefully) Tricky Puzzle
Sort:
Very nice. Many good sacrifices
Good puzzle. Can't see any holes on first inspection. I'm glad you entered the variations.

White's bishop is on c3. Afther 2.Kh1 Nxh2!! and white wins in 2-3 moves
Good puzzle

ben why don't you edit the puzzle and add the bishop in . This would make it a little easier seeing why alternatives don't work . A very nice job :)
Why not 4 ... Qg7 and 5... Rg1# ? What can white do at move 5 to refute? Of course if the bishop is NOT on c3, then this would not work. (I have a feeling you wanted the puzzle to force check on each move, and omitted the c3 bishop first time around.

Absolutely Jim. This is a forced mate in five.
I think it is good.
Thanks Jim, I appreciate your help. I made the changes you stated. Now I think it is ok.
Although I am a beginner, the puzzle wasen't so difficult, but you did an excellent job creating it!
tricky enough for me:)
Why is Qg7 given a "!!" ?
I am just getting into composing chess puzzles, so I would like to see how good this one is. comments are appreciated. See Move List for variations.
