No.651 by Karol Mlynka – Pressburger King as a very active forward battery piece! (JV)
Definitions:
Lion(Li): Moves along Queen lines over another unit of either color to any square beyond that unit. A capture may be made on arrival, but the hurdle is not affected.
Pressburger King (Super-Transmuting King): King which definitively takes up the nature of the checking piece (and thus loses his royal status).

Very nice! This would have fared well in the recent Juraj Loric’s tourney !!
Maybe composed for it?
This compares well with the award winners of that tourney. So probably finished later.
The award is just a few days old:
