In every chess-work that I published with some co-author, the one who gave
the final touch had his name at the end. If it's really a common practice,
the Rook 20 and 27 should therefore respectively be named AF ND, and AF ND
AB.


> Can any result be improved?


I presented the task on the web-site France-Echecs, where there are
excellent retro-analysts, Itamar Faybish among them. He found the
beautiful following Bishop case in 8.5 (with extra capture) :

1.Pe2-e4   Pe7-e5   2.Ff1-a6   Pb7-b5   3.Fa6xc8   Re8-e7
4.Fc8-b7   Re7-f6   5.Fb7-d5   Rf6-g5   6.Cg1-h3   Rg5-h4
7.Pg2-g3   Rh4xh3   8.Fd5-c4   Dd8-h4   9.Fc4-f1

Best,

Nicolas.
