Hi!

If you would like to solve mate then position then look into this:

[D]q2k2q1/1r1q1r2/nRqQqRn1/NqQbQqN1/QQ1K1QQ1/Q2B2Q1/p2b2p1/8 w - -

This position is curious from the point of view that its branching factor (when
mate is searched by brute force) diminish with the depth of search. Usually it
is contrary that you can see. Even second variation of this position, that I
tried by brute force, have the same tendency. Second position was left as more
tough one. If you want to see it then change position of two pieces on the
board. White bishop from D3 goes to H7 and black bishop from D2 to H2. I wonder
even if the second position don't have some solution for blacks but have no time
to try  it. If you will try for blacks, please say me your result if even your
result was negative.

Please say your result.

Thanks,
Leonid.
