Can’t see it in only one move, but e8-e2 forces e1-f1, then d8-d1… mate??

- @jester747 After Re2 Kf1 Rd1+, white can interpose with Qe1 or Ne1.
  
  So…you’re in the ballpark, but not home yet!

Bishop c4-e2 taking the pawn. It’s all downhill for white after that.

- @eonfifty White moving its pawn at f2 would give the king an out, extending things out a bit though.
