That seems obvious to stop white's bishop from going to e5.
Our pawn e6 may now be difficult to protect.

Anyway, I too vote for 41 ... d6

My engine was quite strong till I added knowledge to it.

d7-d6

Kf8 is worth having a look, but seems we have to play this d6 anyways. Wonder what the machine will do.

Move 42..

Post by Steve B »

R30 creates a second passed pawn with ...
42.Rxg6+
http://www.talkchess.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=28922

obviously ..if the forum votes to play 42..Rxg6 then the R30 immediately plays 43.Bxg6 and it is your turn to move again

I vote Rxg6 as well

After Tasc Bxg6 I'm not sure of the following move yet - Rf6, Rg7 are possibilities

Rg7 could capture either Bg6 or Bg3!! because pawn f2 is pinned.
