Key: 1.Kf7...Making the key obvious, eh Paulo? ;-)<br /><br />Key: <b> 1.Kf7!! </b>, covering e6, so White's queen can move away. Here goes the subsequent lines:<br />1...Kc6 2.Qc8+ Kd5(2...Kxb6 3.Bc5+ Kxb5 4.Na3#; 2...Kxb5 3.Na3+ Kxb6 4.Bc5#) 3.Nxc3+ Kxd6 4.Qc7#<br />1...Nd1 2.Nca3(Threatening 3.Qc4/Qxf3#) Kc6 3.Qc8+ Kxb6/Kd5 4.Bc5/Qa8#<br />1...Nd3 2.Qe4+!! Kxe4 3.Nxc3+ Kf5 4.Ne3#<br />1...a3 2.Ncxa3 is similar to the 1...Nd1 line.<br />1...f2 2.Ncd4(Thretening 3.Qe6#) Bxd4(2...Kc4 3.Qe6+ Kd3 4.Qe2#) 3.Qf3+ Kc4 4.Na3#<br />1...h3 2.Nxc3+ Kxd6(2...Kc6 3.Qc8+ Kxb6/Kxd6 4.Bc5/Qc7#) 3.Qg3+ and 4.Qc7#<br />1...Bb4 2.Na7 and 3.Qd4/Qe6#.<br />1...Bd2/e1/d4/e5/xf6 2.Qxf3+ Kc4 3.Nba3#<br />And finally, 1...Nc4 2.Qxf3#.<br /><br />A very well composed puzzle.
