[Retros] one man PGs

Hi Nicolas,

this is of course a matter of opinion.

personally, I would prefer to concentrate on the core of the record, i.e.,"
maximum one man moves", being the other side a partenair.

Since this forces a mini-massacre, I would say that the number of captures
(minimal) is the first complementary criterion, and homebased
pieces after that (this is as usual oriented to a very precise play where
the parternair minimizes the necessary resources).

I think that to add an additional non-thematic move at the end is weaker
than the above. But, I insist, it is a matter of opinion (on a very thin
point).

best,
