Hi ALL

In March 2003 there was a discussion on "4 related pj's". I collected all
contributions in this mail. Which ones should I *NOT* put on the Retro
Corner?

Best Regards,

Not sure using promoted force is quite fair, but here it is:

I do not mind promotees. Two bishops (one of them promoted) do the job!

Of course it looks much nicer if 8.Bg5 is played instead of 8.Bh6.
