5-fach Schlag derselben Figur im Rex-Solus-Wenigsteiner
(Autor).
Toll! (Hans Gruber).
Amüsantes Abseilen des schwarzen Läufers, bevor der weiße
König im Tunnel unter dem schwarzen Turm entkommt (MS).
Sehr lustig, der weiße König bewegt sich wie eine Nähnadel
auf der h-Linie (BG).
Nette Idee (TS).
Offenbar kein Rekord, aber schön (HB).
Im Fahrstuhl abwärts, feine Idee (Klaus Funk).
Wow, er holt den Läufer von seinem "`Hohen Ross"' (NG).

(16+1)
Jedes Fluchtfeld 4-mal gedeckt durch alle 16 weißen Steine

Stelle den schwarzen König in der Brettmitte und 16 weiße Steine so auf, daß jedes Fluchtfeld genau 4-mal gedeckt ist. Jeder Stein muß wenigstens ein Fluchtfeld decken, und der sK darf nicht im Schach stehen. Es sind keine Umwandlungsfiguren erlaubt.
Die Stellung ist legal unter der Annahme, dass Schwarz am Zug ist.
In dem fs-Artikel "Exakte Vielfachdeckung schwarzer Königsfluchtfelder" (fs-59 S.386ff) gibt C.Vaughan ausführliche Erläuterungen.
Original-Quelle lt. Autor: "Fairy Chess Problems, 11/1979"
A.Buchanan: Our Codex, says in Article 6 Special Types:
Additionally, and independent from the classification according to Article 5 [the regular genres: studies, directmates, helpmates & selfmates] there are a number of special types, including:
(a) Retroanalytical chess compositions
(b) Mathematical chess compositions
(c) Constructional chess compositions
But we don't have constructional chess problems as a class. Instead these are miserably and arbitrarily scattered across fairies, retro, mathematics and blank. Effectively the genre gives 0 information, and as a result they are hard to find. There aren't many constructional problems, but why not put them in the box that Nature & the Codex Committee designed for them. Yes they need to be legal, but as we well know, "legality does not a retro make". What do you think? Shall we ask Gerd to create a new genre for these? (2023-08-15)
James Malcom: That feels apt, yes. (2023-08-16)
A.Buchanan: Thanks James - you may have seen the Discord discussion on this in the *new* construction-tasks thread. Of course in PDB there have been a couple of keywords (construction tasks/records) used inconsistently. But that doesn't mean there shouldn't be a genre.
Also, suggest that the stipulation should not give the game away. A #2 with knight-wheel would not blurt "knight-wheel" in the stipulation. Here another bad effect of the lack of genre is that the thematic content is given as the stipulation. I don't know whether the stip here is actually then one used in the article, but we can keep it as "originalforderung". However for solving I suggest the stip should be the neutral "What is curious about this position?" This is in keeping with normal practice of providing the diagram & asking the solver to figure out the theme. (2023-08-17)

... der wK will sich vom T auf h6 mattsetzen lassen. Dazu muss er nacheinander Ba4, Sf1 und Bh6 beseitigen. Der Ta1 pendelt zunächst zwischen a1 und e1, sodann zwischen a1 und a6 und zuletzt zwischen a1 und h1. Um ein Tempo zu verlieren, muss der wK dabei zweimal den Dreiecksmarsch g8-h7(8)-h8(7)-g8 ausführen. Danach ist die Lösung 1.

Judge Hans Gruber (Best Problems 105/2023, p.572-576): "This is a miracle! Although the author showed in a number of publications around the year 2000, that hundreds of threefold chameleon echoes exist in problems without twinning, which seriously limits the innovation value of such problems, I consider this problem – with only two echoes – as outstanding. The quality of the moves and the reasons why their order is unique, is fascinating. Why should manoeuvres by the black king and the white queen (!) be unique on an open board, without constraining fairy conditions, and with the need to reach in two solutions two opposing edges of the board? The provision of appropriate hurdles for the grasshoppers is the key feature. The ingenious find is that the move Db1 (played at different moves) constrains the black king to the a-file in the first solution while it offers him the whole board for a virtuoso slalom run in the second solution. A sensational problem in terms of agility, and I do not care that the computer helped to find it. Still, the composer had to discover this gem in an almost infinitely large data base."

Nachträglicher Kommentar des Autors: Der sBc4 kann entfallen.
Auch veröffentlicht in "KSG-Problemschach 1969-1987".

Der Autor nimmt die Idee von Mario Richter dankend auf und korrigiert sein Stück mit der zusätzlichen Bedingung Single box. Im neuen Diagramm ist auch der überflüssige sBc4 entfernt worden. Die Erstveröffentlichung dieser Korrektur ist die PDB-website am 17.05.2023.

Versuche:
1. Ke5? 2. Kd6 3. Kc7 4. Kxb8 5. Kc7 6. Kd6 7. Ke5 – und es geht nicht weiter, weil dem schwarzen König durch die beiden weißen Läufer der Weg abgeschnitten ist.

Deshalb muss Weiß einen Umweg in die Gegenrichtung in Kauf nehmen, um erfolgreich ans Ziel zu gelangen.

Auswahlschlüssel des schwarzen Königs und für dieses Schema die maximale Zugausbeute mit sieben Steinen.

Published in the article by Sébastien Luce: "Le charme du Scarabée", Phénix 338/2023, p.13164-13168 with a comment: "Cinq Scarabées au minimum sont nécessaires pour mater un Roi seul. Le S15 est un nouveau quadruple écho étonnant de Václav."

Beetle (scarabée) was invented in 1970 by the French composer Roméo Bédoni. Only WinChloe is able to test such problems (not implemented in Popeye either in Alybadix).
Henrik Juel: From the Schwalbe Märchenschachlexikon
Skarabäus: Ähnlich dem geknickten Grashüpfer, nur macht der Skarabäus hinter dem Sprungbock einen 1:2-Sprung in ähnlicher Richtung wie er auf den Sprungbock hinzieht. Von a1 mit Sprungbock auf d4, erreicht er e6 und f5; von d1 mit Sprungbock auf d4, erreicht er c6 und e6. (2024-01-03)
