Rook G7
Kh8
And then? I can’t find it :(
- Rg7, Kxh8;
- Rh7, Kg8;
- g7,
Now if black move the Rook, lets say Ra8, you play Rh8, King Takes (Kxg7) and Whit takse the Rook.
If black plays Kxh7 white takes the Rook and gets a Queen (xf8)
pawn to g7
If the black king goes and captures my rook I can capture theirs an get a queen.
If the black king moves their rook to safety, I can move mine back too, saving it. The pawn and bishop are mutually protecting each other, so no need to worry about king capturing them. Don’t know where to go from here.
If the black king decides to move his pawn up to f6 well… free rook I guess? I’ll just capture his rook with my pawn at g7 and upgrade to queen, he will then be forced to capture her, leaving the black king at f8, his pawn at f6 and my two pieces safe. Though I’m not sure it is possible to do a check-mate with just your king, a rook and a bishop.

It’s possible to checkmate with K + R only, so that would be a yes.
Don’t know where to go from here.
There’s your problem: how would you go about winning that position?
Bishop takes pawn. March the king up to 6 and use it and the bishop to protect the rook as you force black into the corner.
The bishop can’t take the pawn as it’s stuck in the corner. I guess you mean the rook.
In any case, assuming Black loses the pawn, how do you force the king away from g8 if Black’s rook stays on the 8th rank?
No, I was talking about after the rook trade in the comment above yours, but it seems I may have mixed their two scenarios up in the process.
Without looking at any other comments, Rook to G7
Rg7+ kxh8 . Rh8+ kg8 . g7 kxh7 . g7xf8=Q is it correct?
It is. Well done!
KG4
What’s your winning plan after …fxg6?
KG5. See where I’m going with this?
…Kxh7
KH6 ending on G7 for the win

Bf7
The only valid move for Black is to move their rook, at which point you can play Rh8#
Edit: wait nope I’m just dumb, the black pawn can take the white pawn

That bishop can never be on F7.
Good point. I suck at coordinates. I meant Bf6, which is also a bad move
Bishop to F6,
Black to move rook to IDGAF,
Rook to H8.
Dunno what to do if black takes pawn, tho.
