Yep nice one. Briboy, how come you don't set them up like a puzzle with the solution? (or you want people to solve from the board?)

Yes to improve your IMAGINATION :)
Correct is 1.Rxb8!! Kxb8 2. Qxe5+!! when if 2... Ka8 or 2... Kc8, 3.Qe1# and 3.Qc7# respectively, and if 2...fxe5 3.Rf1#. This is a pretty famous game, actualy. Thanks for posting!

Whoops, there would be a couple of interventions before mate, but Rf8 would be mate in context.
