5 | Standard rules apply, but the game ends when all pieces of a kind |
6 | disappeared. Kings are treated as normal pieces (no royal power), but may | |
7 | castle - without any concern about checks. | |

8 | Pawns may promote into king. |
9 | If all pieces of a kind disappear, the game is lost; except if it's a | |
10 | pawns extinction which results in a non-pawn extinction by capturing and | |
11 | promoting on the last rank. | |
