No.777, 778 by Geoff Foster – Two nice 3-men in Back-to-Back! Each problem has a twin in which a black King is replaced by a neutral one. (JV)
Definition:
Back-To-Back: When pieces of opposite colors stand back-to-back with each other on the same file (white piece is on the top of black!), they exchange their roles. A pawn on the first rank cannot move. Any piece can make an en passant capture when it has got a role of Pawn by Back-To-Back.
