5 | Each turn consists of two parts. The first part is a move | |
6 | legal with the orthodox chess rules. The second part of the move, | |
7 | called "push", consists of moving an opponent's pawn a single space forward | |
8 | (toward the player in turn). | |
9 | White has no pawn push on the first move ("balanced" Avalanche). | |

12 | If no pawn can advance at the second part, then it's | |
13 | opponent's turn. If a pushed pawn reaches its last rank, | |
14 | the opponent decides next in which piece it promotes. | |
