No more castling problems, but I was intrigued with G.F. Anderson’s work with the April 15th puzzle. Here’s one he did with C.C. Palmer. A mate in two.


This puzzle is quite a knightmare. 1.Nd6 Re5 1...Qxd6 2.Nxb5#; 1...Bd5 2.Nxf5#; 1...Nac5 2.Qa1#; 1...Ndc5 2.Bf6# 2.Qc4# I do love all the different mating moves involved in trying to stop 2.Ne6 mate.
