Study of the Month - Up to five pieces allowed

The term "malyutka" - "baby" - is used for endgame studies with up to five pieces. The art of such studies is very old, but some modern composers extensively researched such positions. Obviously, endgame tablebases made composing such endgame studies easier in the late 20th century, and it seems that there can't be much variety with only three pieces apart from the kings. Yet, even with so few pieces, some interesting ideas can be found.| Photos: Pixabay

Mad pawns can save the day

€29.90 Our first article, A mad rook rampage, started with a recent game between Jorden van Foreest and Taimour Radjabov, where the outplayed Dutch GM had saved himself with a dolle toren , a mad rook. The second article, Mario Matous s Mad Queen, showed a similar theme for a defending queen. Finally we had an article entitled Mad bishops and knights. In that article the question arose: can pawns become similarly suicidal? To this generally asked question Frits Fritschy wrote: I haven t found any crazy pawn studies, but if they exist, they probably are versions of the excelsior theme (pawn goes from the second row to the eighth row).
