Puzzles needed for tactics trainer
Another nice puzzle:
I'm betting they say no because blocking with the bishop is still mate in 2.
Oh, nevermind. They can't.
28... Be2 is horrible! It'll make a nice computer move. It looks like the best choice is this, but it still looks like black is dead. I hope I didn't miss anything.
Oh, and on your mate in 4, doesn't another white move save them?
I'm not arguing with these nice puzzles, just the other person's moves!

Aren't all of those moves by white bad?
This is a possible end game in a game I'm playing now that I worked out. I have Houdini but not the end game files so I'm not sure if this is all the variations or not, but it is just a simple puzzle easy to screw up.

In the second one, yes, but black will win anyway. The reason I put those moves instead of better moves is because someone might just guess d4! without seeing what happens after R or Bxd4
