moveList=1. j5 d8 2. j7 d6 3. j9 d4 4. j11 d2 5. j12=G {With great strides, white's j-Pawn managed to get promote. White chooses an Eagle to promote with check, to preserve the chance to get the black Pawn before that promotes.} Kd10 {The book discusses 5... Kc12, but then the black Pawn is lost immediately to the fork 6. Ge11+. With this move the King covers both potential forking squares c11 and e11.} 6. Gb11 {White has to keep checking to prevent promotion; when black would promote to Eagle there would be no way to attack it from a blind spot. A Queen or a Lion could still be forked by white's Eagle as easily as a Pawn.} Ke9 {When the King stays on the d-file, the Griffon has the entire c-file to fork or skewer King and Pawn.} 7. Gc8 {Forks King and Pawn, to squash black's last hope.}
