The interversion 7.d4 Td8 8.Le2[+sKc4]+ Kxd4[+wKd2]# does not work. It would definitely be mate 7.d4[+sKc4]# (cf. the definition of Republican Chess by Christian Poisson : when there is a mate, putting the opposite King on the board is mandatory. Here we use Republican Chess type II.) (2008-08-19)
Kevin Begley: Errors fixed. Nice problem! (2010-05-27)
Alfred Pfeiffer: Aus den Stellungen in der Lösungsanimation sollten die beiden Könige auf den Feldern e1 und e8 entfernt werden. (2010-06-16)

Henrik Juel: Nice proof game demonstration of the Swapping Kings condition
C+ by Popeye 4.61 also (in 5 seconds, with 'bed tau'), and no solution in 4.0 or 3.5 moves (2020-02-13)
Henrik Juel: Many solutions in 5.0 moves (2020-02-13)
A.Buchanan: How does this condition work? Can I check both kings with a single move if the swap will take my own king out of check? (2020-02-14)
Henrik Juel: I would think so, but the Schwalbe definition is not quite clear
After the swap (as part of your move) your own king must be out of check, of course, and if the opponent king is in check there is no swap back (2020-02-14)
Henrik Juel: According to the french home page Echekk, the answer is yes (2020-02-14)
A.Buchanan: Thank you - I've updated the English text of the keyword. I hadn't heard of Echekk before - that's really good. I think the page should state the full rule at the beginning of the page before launching into the helpful tutorial. For example the site says that a king returning home in this way has castling rights restored, but you only discover this right at the end of the discussion. (2020-02-15)

paul: Circe assassin : The captured piece appears on its square of regeneration even if the square was occupied. The piece that had occupied the rebirth square is lost. If the occupier before the capture is a King, he is in check.
The solution starts with moves backwards:
-1 Sc5-b3 Bb1-a2+ (The Sb3, which were pinned on b3 closing the threat of Ba2, returns to c5. The Ba2, which was checking since Ba2xe6(+wPe2) assassinates the white King, returns to b1)
-2 e5-e6 Bc1-b2+ / Ba3-b2+ (The Pawn e6 returns to e5. The Bb2, checking from there since Bb2xe5(+wPe2) assassinates the white King, returns (let us say) to c1)
-3 Se6-c5 Rb6-b5+ (The Sc5, which were pinned on c5 closing the threat of Rb5, returns to e6. The Rb5, which was checking since Rb5xe5(+wPe2) assassinates the white King, returns to b6)
-4 Kf2-e2 g4-g3+ -5 Sd8-e6 Rb5-b6+
-6 f5-f6 Ba2-b1+ / b2-b1=B+ (The Pawn f6 returns to f5. The Bb1, which was checking since Bb1xf5(+wPf2) assassinates the white King, could be a Pb2 promoted to Bishop on b1)
-7 Sf7-d8
And now the solution proceeds with forward moves for [Mate in 1 move] :
1.Kg3!# (2.Kg3xh3(+bPh7) with instant assassination of the bK)
The black King is mated! The squares h6, h8 are guarded by the wSf7 and the square g6 is observed by the wPf5. Also [1...Kg7 2 Kxg4(+bPg7)] and [1...Kg8 2 KxSg2(+bSg8)].
Judge's comment (M. Caillaud) : Nice use of Circe Assassin condition with typical pins and mating move. White Knight is pinned on 3 different lines. (2010-06-29)

Comments of the judge Thomas Maeder, who gave 4th Prize:
Since it was determined that some Circe varieties allow Proca retractors with deep content to be constructed economically, this field has become one of the hottest in chess composition, despite the fact that less than a handful of composers have been the driving force. So far, almost everybody restricted themselves to Anticirce, but this problem show that Circe Assassin may be just as promising. (2010-09-26)

Comments of the judge Thomas Maeder, who gave 4th Prize:
Since it was determined that some Circe varieties allow Proca retractors with deep content to be constructed economically, this field has become one of the hottest in chess composition, despite the fact that less than a handful of composers have been the driving force. So far, almost everybody restricted themselves to Anticirce, but this problem show that Circe Assassin may be just as promising. (2010-09-26)

White aims to play -1.b3-b4? & 1.Nb4#, but at the moment there are flights d6, e6 and c5.
Fore-plan consists in immunizing Pawns d6 and e6, a beautiful idea specifically Immun, and less specifically to block c5.
This manoeuver bringing back immunizing white Pawns on d2 and e2 displays 4 en passant captures concentrated in 6 moves : striking and masterful!
(model) mate makes use of immunization of wNb4 by bNg1 (judge Michel Caillaud)

Themes:
- 3 suicides: two in retro play (wRa8 – passive, wQe5 – active) and one in the forward play (bQb1 – passive).
- 3 corners visited by the same black Rook (a8, h8 and h1).
- 2 consecutive uncaptures of black Rook a8 by white Rook h5.
- 2 active self blocks of bQb1 in retro play (bRd3, bBc1).
A highly specific and very difficult idea shown for the first time: black King is on the rebirth square of black Queen, while the black Queen is on the rebirth square of white Knight. In the forward play, white threatens black Queen’s capture who has no flight, so the only defense left is black Queen’s suicide. The idea is quite hidden, as there are no black Rooks aimed to white Knight’s square. White King has to open twice the line for the white Rook, which in turn opens the line for black Rook. Black Rooks appear on ‘h’ file through Circe Assassin specific un captures, showing also some neat dual avoidance. It is interesting to analyze why white can not play neither 2.Rh2xRh5(Ra8, -wQa8) nor 2.Rh4xRh5(Ra8, -wQa8). A real Circe Assassin show!

Bob Baker: I'm not sure how this suggestion should be submitted. In the link to the explanation of Pocket Pieces in English, "whicht" should be "which", "turnto" should be "turn to", and "No piece must be taken" should be "No piece may be taken". (2023-11-01)
