. as well as those of the opposing side.

Solution

{

} 1.e2-e1=S ! {As a screen} h7-h8=B 2.d2-d1=Q {To control b1 & b3.} a7-a8=R# {it's really mat as} 3.Qd1-a4 {is illegal.
Note that} 2...a7-a8=Q + {is illegal because of} 3.Qa8*h1 ! {
It should also be noted that for the same reasons, the } 1...h7-h8=Q {is illegal
and finally, the move } 1.e2-e1=B {would allow an interposition in a5

h#5 back-to-back(2+2)

back-to-back : a piece having "behind" it an opponent piece captures the march
. To be more complete, we can say that the two pieces exchange their march

Solution

{

} 1.h7-h5 Bc1-h6 2.h5-d1=B {(pawn acquires the Bishop's march then promotes itself)} Bh6-g5 {
} 3.Ke8-d7 Bg5-d8 + {(King acquires the Bishop's march... and Bishop the King's one)
} 4.Kd7-h3 Ke1-f2 5.Bd1-g4 {(close diagonal h3-c8)} Bd8-h4 # {
The white Bishop acquires the King's march and thus attacks the black King which acquires the Bishop's march and thus has only the controlled squares g2 & f1.}
