It was a strange ending, typical of the punishment I deserved for underestimating the resolve of my opponent!

The only way to win was to allow the Bishop to be captured, a very risky ordeal since it was parked in the h-file where not one but two passed pawns were heading down the pike!

Once the Archbishop expended the energy to capture the Bishop, I could exhaust all of the checks. This was a very lengthy exercise in running an Archbishop out of gas -- The Battle of The Bulge brought to Gothic Chess.
