But... if white does BxP, it would force QxB. Then white could capture the bishop with the pawn and there is no real advantage gained.
What about starting with N-K5? It would force the queen to move and would add an extra piece to the attack.

After 1...Bxg3 2. Bxc6+ Kf8. White still has to deal with the same threats as before: 3...Bh2#. If 3.fxg3 then 3...Qxg3+ 4.Qg2 Qxg2#.
The actual game is here:
g1071001530
I'm just wondering if mate still follows after white plays Re1.

Rd1 would be better to create the escape space on e1 for white. the f1 square isn't enough for to survive.
