Board 10x10; extra pieces are -Elephant (moves one or two squares -diagonally, may leap intervening square) and -Cannon (as above); CC on a1/j1 and a10/j10, -ERNBQKBNRE on ranks 2/9, 10xP on ranks -3/8.

A man is controlled by the player -in whose half of the board it stands. Thus after -e4-e5, the pawn changes sides and reverses -direction. When you capture (by definition, in -the opponent’s half) there can be no recapture -as the piece has changed sides. You may not -immediately reverse an opponent’s move. The -king has no royal powers but can castle. The -men are allocated points and the object is to -have the most points (in pieces captured) when -the game ends, which is usually when the -players agree or when one half of the board is -empty. Values: King=10, Queen=8, Rook=5, -Bishop=4, Knight=3, Pawn=1.
