minus-squareAussiemandeus@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoYeah that’s the same answer i got. I think that’s the best way. But I’m by no means an expert
minus-squareSquareeyed@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoI did variations where the room doesn’t take the queen, you just attack the rook with the king
minus-squarewahming@monyet.cclinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·1 year agoTell me what you think of the sequence starting Ke2, Pg2, Qe1
minus-squareSquareeyed@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoI tried that but ultimately you lose the queen and can’t stop the pawn queening. The following most likely would be Re4+, then if you move f2 it’s check, f4 you loss your queen and black queens
minus-squarewahming@monyet.cclinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·1 year agoDoh I’m an idiot, missed Re4 somehow
