Henrik Juel: White captured nothing, so Black captured a7xb6xc5xd4xc3, cxd, d7xc6 hxg, and did two more pawn captures to explain the pawn inversion on the f-line; as [Lf1] was captured at home, all 10 missing white men are accounted for
White has no possible last move, so he has the move, and the stipulation is really h#2.5
Last move was g7-g5, because this is the only way to give White a previous move (Kg5-h5), so White may start with an ep capture (2022-03-02)
Henrik Juel: HC+ Popeye 4.61 with analysis (2022-03-02)
