QUOTE(journey @ Feb 28 2005, 11:49 AM)
red will win because red can check mate in two moves and black or blue can not...therefore red wins by rook on line one moving forward 5 steps to the same horizontal line where the pawn on vertical line 5 is...then pawn side step to line 4, check, then king must move to line 5, then car move to line 5, checkmate...

black can in no way checkmate in two steps like red can...therefore black will lose and red will win...

Though you write in word format, I know what u mean. But I need to point out that your reasoning is wrong.

After red moves forward the rook 5 steps (or R1+5), blue checks by pawn 3 horizontal (or p3.4), black king eats the pawn (or K6+1), again checked by pawn 4 (or p4+1), the only way left is moving down (K6-1), down pawn 4 again (p4+1), king escapes to centre (K6.5), so pawn 6 checkmates (or p6.5).

Red can checkmate in two steps, correct. But blue checkmates in only one step.

Actually, you can try your answer by moving the pieces in the power board. You move the red pieces, and computer will play blue in return. See if you can win.

1. P3.4 K6+1 2. P4+1 K6-1 3. P4+1 K6+1 4. R3.4 C+.6 5. R4+4 K6+1
6. P5.4 K6-1 7. C1.4 R8.6 8. P4+1 K6-1 9. P4+1 K6.5 10. P4.5 A4+5
11. R8.5 K5.4 12. R5+1 K4+1 13. P+.6 K4+1 14. R5.6 C9.4 15. P7.6 H2-4
16. C4.6 H4+2 17. C5.6 H2+4 18. C++3 H4-3 19. C+.5 H3-4 20. C5-7 P6+1
21. K4.5 P6.5 22. K5+1 R6-4 23. R6.4 H4-6

It becomes a draw. Of course I want to make it win, but I can't. If someone knows how to win, let me know. Thanks
