Hi Felix,

Just so you know, the longest win on the 8x8 board for B+N vs. sole K does not occur with the pieces on the perimeter in the 4 corners!

The longest 8x8 win is as follows:

White King = a8
Black King = c8
White Bishop = e8
White Knight = h2

Solution with Black to move and lose:

1... Kd8 2. Bf7 Ke7 3. Bc4 Kf6 4. Nf3 Kf5 5. Bd5 Kg4 6. Kb7 Kf5 7. Nd2 Kg4 8. Nc4 Kh3 9. Be4 Kg4 10. Kc6 Kh5 11. Nd6 Kh6 12. Ne8 Kg5 13. Kd5 Kf4 14. Nf6 Ke3 15. Nh5 Kf2 16. Kd4 Ke1 17. Bd3 Kd2 18. Nf4 Kc1 19. Kc3 Kd1 20. Bc2+ Ke1 21. Kd3 Kf2 22. Bd1 Kg3 23. Ng6 Kf2 24. Bh5 Kg1 25. Ke2 Kg2 26. Bg4 Kg3 27. Bf3 Kh3 28. Kf2 Kh2 29. Bd1 Kh1 30. Be2 Kh2 31. Bf1 Kh1 32. Ne5 Kh2 33. Ng4+ Kh1 34. Bg2#
