Light to move. Dark has 0 men and 1 king, Light 2 men and 1 king.
Win within 2 moves: at the end the opponent has no pieces left or no legal move, whatever they try.
What the position is about
- sacrifice — A piece is given up on purpose: the forced capture pulls the opponent onto the square you need.
- kings on the board — At least one king is on the board, so pieces can come back as well as go forward.
Finding the way in
Two-move wins usually come from a king that can trap the last man, or from a capture the opponent is forced to make into your jump.
Take your time. There is no clock on the result, and a wrong move is simply taken back so you can look again.
