RBN Checkmate

Rook, Bishop, Knight Combination Checkmate

One of the Correspondence Chess games I won playing as Black over this past weekend finished with my h3 Rook, f4 Knight, and b6 Bishop combining forces to Checkmate the White King. Position of pieces at game's end is shown above, and our full move record follows: 1. d4 h6 2. e4 a6 3. b4 e5 4. c3 Nf6 5. Nf3 Nc6 6. h4 exd4 7. cxd4 Bxb4+ 8. Nfd2 Nxe4 9. f3 Ng3 10. Rh3 Nf5 11. a3 Ba5 12. Bb2 O-O 13. g4 Nd6 14. d5 Re8+ 15. Kf2 Bb6+ 16. Kg3 Ne5 17. f4 Ng6 18. h5 Re3+ 19. Kf2 Rxh3+ 20. Kg2 Nxf4#

And the adventure continues.
