(28.12.2015) Here are two wonderful fairy problems by Krassimir Gandev!
Black: 1.nBSa4xa1=nRL White: 1.Rd8-d6 2.nBSb6-d8=nSL 3.nSLd8xe6-f4 4.nSLf4xg6-h8 5.Rh6-f6 6.nBSh3xh8=nL 7.nLh8xc8-b8 8.nSPh2-h8=nBL 9.nRLa1xd1-e1+ Ba8-e4 == AUW of Locust pieces, very original content (Author)
Neutral piece (n): A unit with this characteristic may be regarded as of either colour by the side whose turn it is to play. Neutral pawns promote to neutral pieces. Super Pawn (SP):can go as far as they like in the usual directions, when moving or capturing; promotions are normal. BerolinaSuperPawnBS: behaves as a Berolina P except that (when moving or capturing) it may go as far as desired along the usual lines, provided that they are clear, e.g. white BSa2xa8=S or white BSc2-h7. Locust (L): a piece which moves only to capture. It lands on the same squares as a grasshopper, but the arrival square must be empty, because the locust captures its hurdle. R-Locust (RL): a locust confined to R-lines. B-Locust (BL): a locust confined to B-lines. S-Locust (SL): move like a Knight, capture like Locust on S-line.
