I don't agree. A promoted piece captured by an officer is also paradoxal,
as it is "invisible".
Another criticism would be that a Schnoebelen is much more difficult to
construct than a half one. More is clear but much more not so... Indeed
the record by the same side is 3 each time (Of course 3 Schnoebelen is a
masterpiece and 3 half only a good job).
Nevertheless I don't insist to same the name "half". Calling it "Prentos
promotee" might be another way.
Nicolas.
