===Example 1=== [[file:Lichess_funny.gif|thumb|right|240px|Puzzle 1: Black to play and win]] The solution is 1...Qf2{{chesspunc|!}}, attacking the f1-rook; 2.Rxf2 would incur a [[back-rank checkmate]] after 2...Rd1+. If 2.Rg1, 2...Bc5 sets up a {{chessgloss|battery}} targetting g1, where White can stop checkmate only by moving the c1-bishop to {{chessgloss|connected rooks|connect rooks}}. Since the only two squares available to the bishop are controlled by the black queen, loss of the bishop is unavoidable. White's best try is 2.Be3, giving up the bishop immediately and leaving Black an easily {{chessgloss|winning position|won position}}. {{-}}
