I must sincerely apologize for 2 errors:


1) It must read wKa8 etc. (on c8 there is already the bishop, but the FEN is correct)


2) It must read "add a bishop" (not a white bishop)





In succession of the legendary Christmas Contest of the "Stuttgarter Zeitung" there are two unpublished Retro miniatures from Werner Keym and Guenther Weeth:



Werner Keym, Stuttgarter Zeitung 23.12.2017

K1B2rk1/B7/5P2/6P1/8/8/8/8 w - - 0 1
wKa8, Ba7, Bc8, Pg5, Pf6; bKg8, Rf8

Weiß nimmt drei, Schwarz zwei Zuege zurueck. Dann setzt Weiß in einem Zug matt. Schwarz verteidigt (Proca)
White retracts three, Black retracts two moves, then White mates in one move (Proca) (White begins with retracting)

Günther Weeth/Werner Keym, Stuttgarter Zeitung 23.12.2017

8/8/8/8/8/3K1kPP/2P2P2/7r w - - 0 1
wKd3, Pc2, f2, g3, h3; bKf3, Rh1

Ergänze einen Laeufer und einen weiteren Stein so, dass der letzte Zug von Schwarz eindeutig ist. Wie viele Loesungen?
Add a white Bishop and another chessman in such a way, that the last move from Black is unique. How many solutions?



For questions, remarks etc. please write to w.keym at gmx.net


The solutions will be published on 13th January


Merry Christmas! - Harald Keilhack
