Definitions:
Hurdle colour changing piece (Lion, Grasshopper, Kangaroo, Dolphin etc.): if a hurdle colour changing piece moves over a hurdle that is not a king, the colour of the hurdle is changed.
The Hurdle colour changing pieces are known as Andernach pieces. Some examples:
Andernach Grasshopper:Like a normal Grasshopper (moves along Queen-lines over another unit of either colour to the square immediately beyond that unit) but it changes colour of the piece it jumps over (except the Kings and the neutral pieces).
Andernach Kangaroo: As an Andernach Grashopper but requiring 2 (not necessarily adjacent) hurdles on the same line, and landing on the square immediately beyond the second hurdle, changing colour of the pieces it jumps over (except the Kings and the neutral pieces).
Andernach Dolphin = Andernach Grasshopper + Andernach Kangaroo

Comments
When I use Andernach Grasshopper, it is allowed to use
1) normal Grasshopper?
2) normal Bishophopper and/or Rookhopper?
But I will ask Krassimir about the case you noted and will inform. Probably it can be done as a section B of the tourney, I don't know. Will ask Gandev.
The new Section B is included in the tourney - there you can use also other type of fairy pieces (white and black, but not neutral and half-neutral).
The deadline is the same 21.03.2016 and the Award of both sections will be published till 30.04.2016
