[Retros] SuperProblem composing thematic tourney for proofgames

[CAILLAUD Michel]

Aaahhh!
Bad use of english, I am afraid.
In french, "pièces" include "figures" (officers) and "pions" (pawns). So,
when I want to specify a "unit" that is not a pawn, I use the word officer.
As I understand, for "pièces blanches" I should use "white units" instead
of "white pieces"...

Best wishes,
Michel
