Duplicate Diagram: P1214056

Judge's comment [Kostas Prentos]: "This is not the first quadruple Pronkin in a proof game; Nicolas has published a few, already. It is the first time that one of the four thematic pieces, the wQ, is captured at home, and is replaced by a new Pronkin Queen. The promoted black Bishops are an effective, but unpleasant alternative to the standard method of doubled pawns that usually come with this theme. In this case, the capture on d1 is thematic, and that on a1, forgivable, considering that it takes 5 moves to reestablish the Rook on a1. On the plus side, all the surviving white army has resumed the initial position."
Henrik Juel: diagram error: black king is missing (2018-12-30)

Moldenhauer: Computerprüfung: C+ neue Stellung Stelvio 1.31
ursprüngliche FEN: n7/b1p3p1/2bqkn2/2p4b/b7/3r1rp1/P1PP2P1/RNBQKBNR keine Lösung!
neue FEN mit UPG Lösung 2 Min.: n7/b1p3p1/3qkn2/2p4b/b7/2br1rp1/P1PP2P1/RNBQKBNR
Jetzt muss jemand prüfen ob die ursprünglichen FEN falsch waren! Eingabefehler?
Diese Möglichkeit habe ich nicht. James kannst Du bitte? Danke!!!
Dann wäre noch das Diagramm auf die neuen FEN zu ändern.
Beim Start steht der Läufer noch auf c6. (2023-06-20)
James Malcom: Dug through the online The Problemist archive: https://www.theproblemist.org/mags.pl?type=tp
Issue 3/2011, p. 23.
The diagram now matches the publication and solution. (2023-06-20)
