  An Englishman: Good Evening: Solved it, to my surprise. Did amuse me to realize that Black's goal does not consist of either material gain or a mating attack, but to paralyze White's entire force.

Jun-07-25  King.Arthur.Brazil: The king has not being lucky this week, but proposes the following line: 18...Nf6 19. Qxe5 Rhe8 20. Qf4 Re4 21. Qf3 Rexd4 22. Be2 T8d6 (or Ne4). B position is good, but didn't seem winning.
