2. Schnoebelen theme: A promoted unit, which has not played after its promotion, is captured on its promotion square.

  • Problems with twins or zeroposition are allowed.
  • All fairy pieces and conditions are accepted, provided that the problem is checked by a known solving program.
  • Annoucement in PDF

I’m not convinced by the Supercirce example.
The promoted pieces are not ‘captured’, they’re still on the board and what’s more play an important part in the subsequent play!
