No.330 by Michael Grushko & Semion Shifrin – Surprising four-men with AUW! (JV)
Definitions:
Couscous Circe: As Circe, but the captured piece reappears on the Circe rebirth square of the capturing unit. Pawns reappearing on promotion squares are promoted instantly, at the choice of their own side.
Maximummer – Black must play the geometrically longest move or may choose from among longest moves of equal length, distances being measured from the center of each square. Diagonal and oblique distances are measured from the orthogonal coordinates by using Pythagora’s theorem (take the square root of the sum of the squares of the orthogonal distances). All other orthodox chess rules apply.

Magical !
In a), c) and d) the stipulation could be the classical h#5. For example, a) could be:
White Pa2 Pc2
Black Pd7 Kd4
Stipulation H#5
Condition CouscousCirce whitemax
1.d7-d5 c2-c4 2.Kd4*c4 [+wPe8=wS] Se8-f6 3.Kc4-b5 Sf6*d5 [+bPb1=bQ] 4.Qb1*a2 [+wPd8=wQ] Qd8-h4 5.Kb5-a5 Qh4-a4 # (C+)
In 3 out of 4 phases the stipulation hs#5 is not justified.
Dear Paul,
Thank you very much for your comments.
We had a plan ahead of us: excelsior from AUW with minimal material, and not more than five moves.
Of course starting with H5 , but we didnt achieved it, we got the same as you ,with only three variants.
If someone will get interested, and realize our planing in H, our congratulations, It will be a really good achivment.
Michael & Semion
