Frank Richter: Surprisingly a dual: 3.Df3+ Kg1 4.Dg3+ Kh1 5.Lg2+ Kf1 6.Ld5+ Kf1 7.Dg2+ Ke1 8.Df2+ Kd1 9.Lb3+ Kc1 10.Dxh2 ~ 11.Db2 Lxb2#
So we get with wSg4 a s#9 with 2 solutions. (2009-04-29)
paul: The second "solution" is rather a cook. Will be much better to be avoided. (2022-09-14)
Nightrider: Simple correction: +bPh4 (many other squares for an additional bP are possible and would make the problem correct). C+ Gustav 4.2e.

Nice logical structure: With wQb6, 1.Sf2+ Kg1 2.Sh1+ K:S 3.Qb1+ would be sufficient. The queen could make a staircase walk to b6 if wSe4 were not in the way. Hence 1.Sf2+ Kg1 2.Sg4+ Kh1 to open the queen's way to b6: 3.Qe4+ Kg1 4.Qd4+ Kh1 5.Qd5+ Kg1 6.Qc5+ Kh1 7.Qc6+ Kg1 8.Qb6+ Kh1. Now the wS has been moved, but on its new square (g4) it disturbs even more than before (on e4). Therefore 9.Sf2+ Kg1 10.Sh1+ K:h1 and finally 11.Qb1+ Rg1#. (2023-11-24)
