Hardest Chess problem

To check, setup the same position and click analyze. It is a quiet move to let into mate in 2.

YES!!! Very nice indeed and sneaky too! (checked manually myself, took a minute...)

1. Qa8 Qc4 (or Rc4, either); 2. Nd6# !!!

Very nice calculating!

Cheers and good chess...

VERY nice... Really ANY move by the R or Q results in #! Tried a few manual moves to see if anything else came up, and... Either 2. Nc5# or Nd6# - seems always mate in TWO! Lovely, tactical solution, my friend!

Thank you.

IMO, I prefer to try manually, either on screen or on a board first... THEN, when I am 95+% certain, check against an analysis.

And, I find your solution an elegant and crafty one! In both of our solutions, the King stays put.
