			<description><![CDATA[Thanks Antonio. My version was just a suggestion. Basically, this scheme involves selfblocks and mates on the lateral/diagonal which is opened by black/white. If you have no further suggestions to improve the strategy, you are welcome to publish it as joint effort.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[This is a nice problem, but I do not like the capture of the stationary black queen by white. I also wonder if the nightrider hoppers are really essential to the theme. They are used only to force the black move order. The white pawns d6/e4 can be captured by any kamikaze black piece or pawn and the solution will work. Here is one possibility without these unwanted features. B1 moves are now pure selfblocks.
