5 The only difference with orthodox chess is the double-move rule,
6 but this affects the game a lot.

9 At the very first move of the game, white make only one move - as usual.
10 However, after that and for all the game each side must play twice at
964eda04 11 every turn (except if the first move captures the enemy king).

30 Capturing en-passant is allowed under certain conditions.
31 If the opponent moved a pawn allowing such a capture (once or twice),
32 then (to take it) you must capture en-passant at the first move of your turn.
33 After that, if (and only if) there is another en-passant capture available
34 you can play it on the second move.

37 Note: if a pawn 2-squares jump was made and then a piece landed at the
38 en-passant square at the second move, a pawn capture on this square
39 takes only the piece.
40 And, if a pawn advanced twice then en-passant capture
41 on its first movement is impossible (the pawn is now "too far").
