Hello Roy,

it´s (at least) a forced mate in 12!

ChestUCI Ver.3.3  UCI:

CPU: Celeron 400MHz
FEN: n1QBq1k1/5p1p/5KP1/p7/8/8/8/8 w - -
Search for Special-Mate [C-/K2/P0/X0] in 15 ...  (Hash=48MB)
12   00:31  M12  1.Lc7
Search completed ...  (Time=45.86s)
Special-Mate in 12 found !  (1 Solution in 00:45)
12   00:46  M12  1.Lc7 Dxc8 2.gxf7+ Kh8 3.Le5 Dc5 4.Lb2 Sc7 5.La1 a4 6.Lb2 a3
7.La1 a2 8.Lb2 a1L 9.Lxa1 Dc3+ 10.Lxc3 Sd5+ 11.Ke6+ Sxc3 12.f8D+

I´ll try, if there will be a shorter one.

Regards,
Franz.
