The Babson task is a kind of chess problem of the form " white to move and mate black in N moves against any defence " with the following play:

The task is named after the first person to speculate about the possibility of such a problem, Joseph Ney Babson.

It is regarded as one of the greatest challenges for a composer of chess problems to devise a satisfying Babson task problem, and for around half a century the task was considered to be near-impossible in directmate form.

Technically, the task can be regarded as a form of Allumwandlung with corresponding promotions by black and white ( an Allumwandlung is a problem which contains, at some point in the solution, promotions to each of the four possible pieces — such problems had already been composed before Babson devised his task ).

This 1912 problem by Wolfgang Pauly is, as it were, a three-quarter Babson task — three of black's promotions are matched by white.

However, this is not a full Babson, because 1 ... a1B 2. f8B does not work — white must instead play 2. f8Q, with similar play to above.

The earliest Babson tasks are all in the form of a selfmate-this is where white, moving first, must force black to mate him against his will within a specified number of moves.

He managed to compose a Babson task problem using nightriders ( a Fairy piece which moves like a knight, but can make any number of knight-like moves in the same direction in one go ) instead of knights, but found it hard to devise one using normal pieces — because of their limited range, it is difficult to justify white promoting to a knight because of black promoting to one way over the other side of the board.

Despite all these flaws, it is the first complete Babson task.

The following year, Leonid Yarosh, a football coach from Kazan then virtually unknown as a problem composer, came up with a much better Babson task problem than Drumare's – the position is legal, it is much simpler than Drumare's problem, and there are no promoted pieces on board.

First published in March 1983 in the famous Russian chess magazine Shakhmaty v SSSR, this is generally thought of as the first satisfactory solution of the Babson task.

Hoffmann had previously published a number of conventional directmate Babsons, but this one is significant as it is the first cyclic Babson: rather than black promotions being matched by white, they are related in cyclic form: black promoting to a queen means white must promote to a bishop, black promoting to a bishop means white must promote to a rook, black promoting to a rook means white must promote to a knight, and black promoting to a knight means white must promote to a queen.

As with Drumare's original Babson task, the problem uses promoted pieces and has a capturing key, but it is nonetheless remarkable for being the first published cyclic Babson.
