So here's the situation. I'm white. I'm losing pretty badly. Black has 2 more pawns, 1 more knight, has my rook under direct attack from the black queen without any defense, and has a stranglehold on my king, keeping me in check for most of the game. At this point, I'm not sure what to move. What move would you make?

I could move my rook out of danger, but that doesn't do me any long term good. I decided to move my bishop from a8 to c6. The black queen moves from f6 to h8, taking my rook. So now what should I do?

Well, I moved my queen from c8 to d7, taking the black knight, and putting the black king in check...and mate! From being down 4 pieces, I mate with a queen and 2 bishops. Bravo.
