hist-games: Need reference in Glonnegger: Das Spiele-Buch...

[M Winther]

I have now made a slight rule change in the Horsa movement: it 
may only move one square in its first move. This is to avoid an 
obligatory maneuver where the Horsa is exchanged with a Korna, 
which creates tedium in the opening. I suggest that this is a significant 
rule improvement.
