I 'spected dat.:)
An' welcome back!
I support vigorous frottage, and mopery, but, at my age it's hard to not call it loitering. :D
Now, the bishoprick is about.
[attachment=o225607]
He slinks back to KB5 and faces off with whites Main Bodyguard.
Gave back another move, but gained a pawn and a very cool position in return.:cool:
And so begins the end.
Not chasing.
More, skewering, and pinning, and trading designed to force a bad position and/or gain tempo.
Could get tricky.:D
Aloha,

Threatening your knight.

Kn - KR4
Threatening your rook.

That must be QR4.Quote:
Kn - KR4
Threatening your rook.
Rook to MY QR4, threatens your knight.
Sorry for the loss. I've noticed at a few points you've had your bishops and rooks paired up on adjacent paths. Is this a common tactic? Or are you demonstrating "How to coordinate an assault with multiple attackers 101"?Quote:

Actually, just doing that because white let me do it.:DQuote:

Ordinarily I'd use my knights for that and "fianchetto" (Kn2) the bishops giving them the longest diagonals.
White's biggest problem is the King's exposure but, sadly, lacks the tempo to tuck him away from the fray.
All the white king can do now, is hope for a bloodbath.
That would put both kings to work sheparding pawn promotion.
Black is aware of that and is unlikely to cooperate.:D

Where (how) would be a good place to tuck away a king? Corners are easier to protect (?) but easier to get trapped therein.
Meanwhile, P to K kn 3, annoying your bishop.

P.S. Sent some pics, did they come through?
Not yet!Quote:

Sure your Bishop was pinned, but...
This should, force a move of an invested piece, (your knight), destabilize your knights mutual protection and pin one of them to the king.
Which is not a good thing.:D
I'll keep lookin' for those snaps.
Aloha,
Weeze
Sent 'em to your nospam addy from a different email on this end. Hope I didn't send 'em to the DEA by mistake... I'll try again, just a test this time.Quote:

Meanwhile, K x B, but you knew that already...
Actually, I'm pretty sure I know the next 5 moves.Quote:

Still, I might be missing something.

Hey, that email has got me a bit concerned. Didn't get a non-delivery error message (gulp). Doppler came back "normal" whatever that means...
And by "K" I meant Knight, :o if you didn't figure that out already. I have this, unless I screwed things up again:
