A white pawn g3 was accidentally omitted from the last diagram of the
improved compositions. Corrected version is:

Subject: More Type DD improvements

 

Dear retro friends,

 

Eight problems to which the stipulation is:

"Last move? Duplex."

 

First, one of the three remaining unsolved cases is closed:

P2/N1qb4>

(Buchanan)

 

The remaining two cases are QxR & QxQ. QxR should be doable, but I think QxQ
is quite a challenge.

 

Second, seven incremental improvements to existing records:

Also: to let you know, my PxR=Q was cooked by Andrey Frolkin. I have
submitted a fixed version to Hans Gruber for feenschach, so is not included
here.

 

All the best,

Andrew.
