| 5 | Pawns and kings move as usual, but the other pieces generally do not. |
| 6 | Indeed, before the game start you must select two armies, defining |
| 7 | new movements for "rooks", "knights", "bishops" and "queens". |
| 8 | |
| 9 | p Pieces movements are described using these simple pieces: |
| 10 | ul |
| 11 | li Dabbabah = jump two squares orthogonally |
| 12 | li Alfil = jump two squares diagonally |
| 13 | li Wazir = one square orthogonally |
| 14 | li Ferz = one square diagonally |
| 15 | li Three leaper (L3) = jump three squares orthogonally |
| 16 | li Narrow knight = knight without "2+1 lateral moves" |
| 17 | |
| 18 | p Pawns can be promoted into a piece of any of the two armies playing. |
