Hi all,

I have not yet received the Schwalbe issue of October 2008; but I want to give a short note on another matter of translation:
The accepted English translation of "Duellantenschach" is "Single Combat Chess"; see for example "The Chessboard Adventures of Norman Macleod", page 196.

Best wishes,

Bernd
