3 x fortgesetzter Angriff mit schwarzer Linienkombination (Autor).
Äußerst stark in Inhalt und Form (MOe).
Da wird allerhand gezeigt: Fortgesetzter Angriff, selbstschädigende Verführungen infolge weißer Linienverstellungen, Mattwechsel (HZ).
Ahues Linienkünste sind stets beeindruckend, ohne daß ich dies einem bestimmten Zweig im "Dschungel" der Linienkombination zuordnen könnte (HJ).
Gewohnt routinierte wenn auch nicht überragende Arbeit des GM's (MS)!

Kreuzflucht mit Zugzwang. Schön, aber der Schlüssel, der die totale Symmetrie herstellt, ist sehr offensichtlich. Dadurch wirkt die Aufgabe doch sehr schematisch (CG).
Kreuzflucht mit dem Charme eines Biedermeier-Sekretärs (FH)!
Die Differenzierung der S-Abzüge ist schon eindrucksvoll, aber die Symmetrie macht S:d2 trotz weiterer Fluchtfelder zu einem schwachen Schlüssel (MOe).
Kreuzflucht des sK mit Verblockung von drei dieser vier Fluchtfelder; ein neuer Task-Rekord (MS)?
Wer kann diese Frage beantworten (FP)?

S schließt und öffnet gleichzeitig eine Linie, W schließt im Schlüssel zwei Linien, öffnet diese im Mattzug wieder, wobei gleichzeitig eine dritte Linie geschlossen wird. Extrem viel Inhalt, ohne daß die Konstruktion verkrampft wirkt (MOe).

Autoren: Umnow-Thema.
Weiße Batterieauflösung auf der 5. Reihe nach unscheinbarem Schlüsselzug des wB. Schade, daß 1.- T3d5 zum Kurzmatt führt (KHS).

Angesichts zweier satzmattloser Königsfluchten ist das Satzspiel 1.- Td4 wohl eher ein Scherz, zumal das drohende 1.- Kf4 den Schlüssel zur Selbstverständlichkeit macht (EZ). Das Satzspiel steht auf schwachen Füßen: 1.- Kf6 soll man sehen, 1.- Kd4 und 1.- Kf4 dagegen nicht. Nach 1.- f4 tritt kein Wechsel ein (Dr. HS). Illustration zum Beresina-Debakel 1812: mit übermächtigen Batterien (FH)!

Dombrovskis, Sagoruiko, Salazar, Barnes (Autor).
3x2-Sagoruiko und Salazar in Kombination mit einer weiteren Wechselthematik, die ich aber nicht erkenne (HJ).
Der Schlüssel springt wegen Lh8 sofort ins Auge. Die Widerlegungen der Verführungen sind zu grob (Dr. HS).
Der doppelt batteriebildende Schlüssel ist, auch wenn kein Batterieabzug droht und die zweite Batterie nur als Fesselung wirksam wird, einfach scheußlich (EZ).

Funktionswechsel der weißen Türme in lockerer Stellung, dazu zahlreiche, nicht leicht zu widerlegende Verführungen (Dr. KHS). Gefälliges Verführungsstück, bei dem man tatsächlich zunächst einmal alles durchprobiert, bevor der richtige Schlüsselzug gefunden ist (HJ). Die Widerlegungen fast aller Verführungen sind zu offensichtlich, den Schlüssel habe ich sofort gesehen (Dr. ,HS).

Suschkow Thema, Sagoruiko, Ruchlis, Hannelius (Autor).
Da auf 1.- K:e5 kein Satzmatt vorhanden ist, bleibt hier entweder ein Nimm-Schlüssel (1.c:d4 oder 1.L:f4) oder ein Gib-und-Nimm-Schlüssel. Eine plausible 4. Verführung sehe ich nicht (Dr.HS).
Die Satzflucht ist ungedeckt, die Anlage symmetrisch (EZ).
Die beiden letzten v (1.c:d4?/L:f4?) passen nicht so ganz hinein, ich hätte sie ganz weggelassen (HR).
