Taking the Archbishop leads to a "Mate in 10" announcement when I let Vortex run overnight.

Vortex 1.0.7, which has not been released yet, will not take the Archbishop after only 20 seconds on my 2.8 Ghz computer.

The move 15...exf4! wins for black.

15...exf4 16. Bxg4 fxg4 and white's position is becoming exposed faster than any attack will come forth.
