Black to move. How should Black proceed?
Source: ChessToday.net
1.-h4 2.Kh4 Qh7 3.Kg3 Qh3 4.Kf2 Nd3 wins a queen. 2.Kh2 is hence forced,
but after 2.-Rae8 (with Qd2+ in the air) black looks winning.
With 1…h4+! black should win easily.

1. – h4+!
a) 2.Kf2 Nd3+ wins the queen
b) 2.Kh2 Qd2+ 3.Re2 (else Qg2 mate) 3.-Qe2:+ [safest to avoid any perpetual checks] and black remains a piece up
c) 2.Kh4: Qh7+ 3.Kg5 (3.Kg3 Qh3+ 4.Kf2 Nd3+) 3.-Nh3 mate, cute!
I´ve found 1…h4+ with ideas to put the king into an open h colunm and in a square forkeable by the knight, but couldn´t find a good answer to 2.Kh3.
Did you see anyother stuff, guys?

1. ….. Ph4+
1…h4! and then:
A: 2 Kh4 Qh7 3 Kg3 (3 Kg5 Nh3 mate)Qh3 4 Kf2 Nd3 -+ wins the queen
B: 2 Kf2 Nd3 -+
C: 2 Kh2 Qd2 3 Re2 (Kh1 Qg2 mate) Qe2 4 Qe2 Ne2 5 Nf8 Rf8 -+

h4+
If Kh2 Qd2+
If Kf2 Nd3+
If Kxh4 Qh7+
1 … h4
If 2. Kxh4 then Qh7 and mate in two
If 2. Kf2 then Ne3, forking the queen
If 2. Kh2 then Qd2 3. Re2 Qxe2 4. Qxe2 Rxe2 5. Nxf8 Rxf8, winning a piece
1…h4+! Black get a winning initiative
For exemple
1…h4+ 2.Kh4, Qh7+
if 3.Kg5 4.Qe7-h4+
if 3.Kg3 Qh3+ 4.Kf2, Nd3+ win the queen
On 2.Kh2, Qd2+ is killing

1… h4+
2. Kh2, Qd2+
3. Re2, QxR+
wins a rook.
if 2. Kxh4 then
2… Qh7+
3. Kg3
(if 3. Kg5, Nh3#)
3. … Qh3+
4. Kf2, Nd3+ wins the Q.
1.h4+ …Kxh4
2.Qh7+…Kg3
3.Qh3+…Kf2
4.Nd3+wins
Is …Nd3 the move? It’s the only one that makes sense to me, but it looks too vague to be the answer.
h4! if he takes then qh7, if kf2 then nd4, and if kh2 then qd2, re2, qxr, qxq, nxq, nxr, rxn wins.

Vo Mito, if Kh3, then Horse takes King is fairly strong
