1)Ne7+ Nxe7 2)Bxh7+ Qxh7 3)Qh7 mate
took me a few variations bevcause I wanted to mate with the knights. But Ne7+
(1) Ne7+ Nxe7
(2) Bxh7+ Qxh7
(3) Qxh7++
1.Ne7+ Nxe7
2.Bxh7+ Qxh7
3.Qxh7 mate
It’s a mate in 3 starting with
1.Ne7+ Nxe7
2.Bxh7+ Qxh7
3.Qxh7#
1. Ne7+ Ne7
2. Bxh7+ Qxh7
3. Qxh7++
1. Qxg6+, if either PxQ then 2. Ne7#, etc.
Two blockhead knights are blocking the White bishop attack on h7. Let’s use the 1st knight to decoy the 2nd.
1. Ne7+ Nxe7 2. Bxh7+ Qxh7 3. Qxh7#

1. Ne7+ Nxe7
2. Bxh7+ Qxh7
3. Qxh7#
1. Ne7+ and 2. Bxh7+
1. N-E7 1. NxN 2.BxP 2.QxP 3.QxQ checkmate!
Ne7
1. Nfe7+ Ngxe7
2. Bxh7+ Qxh7
3. Qxh7#
1. Ne7+ Nxe7 (only move)
2. Bxh7+ Qxh7 (again: only move)
3. Qxh7#
Ne7+, Black Ne7x, Bh7, Black Qh7x, white Qh7 checkmate
Forgive if I didnt write it out right, I am still learning…
@jMac: if 1. Qxg6? hxg6, 2. Ne7+ Kg7… Now what?
this looks simple:
1. Ne7+ Nxe7
2. Bxh7+ Qxh7
3. Qxh7#
greets, jan
but then Kg7 is possible! this is tough
1. Ne7+ Ne7; 2. Bh7+ Qh7; 3. Qh7 mate – Ariel G. Tinio
1. Ne7+ Nxe7 2. Bxh7+ Qxh7 3. Qxh7#
Hello
1. Ne7+ , Nxe7
2. Bxh7+, Qxh7
3. Qxh7#
Greetings from Spain
Here the simplest move to find is also the best working:
1. Ne7+ Nxe7
2. Bxh7+ Qxh7
3. Qxh7#
jMac:
Your suggestion fails to
2. … Kg7
The night you see on f5 isn’t there any more…
I am so drunk all I can look at is forced moves with check
Ne7 any
Bh7 any
Qh7
bottoms up
Wancey Yard
1.Ne7+ Nxe7
2.Bxh7+ Qxh7
3.Qxh7#
1. Qxg6+ doesn’t work, g7 is free for escape after Ne7
So the correct way seems to be 1. Ne7+!
1… Nxe7
2. Bh7+ Qxh7
3. Qxh7#
1.Qxg6+,either PxQ 2.Ne7+,Kg7
instead 1.Ne7+,Ne7 2.Bh7+,Qh7
3.Qh7 mate
ne7 check, knight takes; bxh7 check, and it’s curtains?
1Ne7+nxn 2Bxp+ qxb 3Qxq mate

2.Ne7 Kg7
1. Ne7+,N X e7; 2. Bxh7+, Qxh7; 3. Qxh7#

Gee whiz! It’s 9:33 Friday morning,
California time and there are already
32 comments. Don’t you people have a
life? 😀
Anyway, I see a forced win for White.
