Ok ... my guess, before Heiner moves in with his heavy artillary, a mate in 9:

06:18 WM9 09 Bxc7+ Qbxc7 Qxc7+ Qxc7 Qxd6+ Qcxd6 Nxe6+ Qexe6 Qfxf6+ Re7 Rxd6+
Qxd6+ Qxd6+ Bd7 Qhxf8+ Qxf8 Qcc7#

This one's a bit too easy, haha, found a mate in 6:

00:04 WM6 06 Qxc7+ Nxc7 Nxd6 Nxa5 Qxd7+ Nxd7 Nc6+ Nxc6 Ncb7+ Qxb7 Nxb7#

Have a nice Sunday,
