  | Capture the ball, pass it among your pieces and bring it to the
  | center of the last rank.

p.
  At the beginning, there is a ball in the center of the 9x9 board.
  It doesn't move. The first piece to capture it will then hold the ball.

  li.
    Capturing an enemy unit holding the ball both make the piece
    disappear and grab the ball.
  li.
    "Capturing" a friendly unit pass the ball to it, or take the ball
    from it. In both cases the pieces don't move.

p.
  All pieces represent players on a field of some ball game,
  so they can move up to three squares only for a better realism.

p.
  To balance the advantage of ball possession, the piece holding the ball
  cannot capture enemy pieces.

  | The new piece represented by an upside-down knight is a 
  a(href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phoenix_(chess)") Phoenix (H)
  | . It moves by jumping two squares diagonally (potentially over pieces),
  | or one square orthogonally.

p.
  The black phoenix on g4 passes the ball to the black queen on e2.
  Victory is then garanteed by playing a queen move on the first rank.

  | A friend and I talked some day (in 2019) about a variant where pieces
  | would hit a ball to bring it to the opposite side.
  | This version is inspired by these preliminary trials,
  | because hitting the ball led to somewhat blocked situations.
  | Indeed in 
  a(href="https://www.chessvariants.com/crossover.dir/football.html")
    | Football Chess
  |  mentioned on chessvariants, the ball could have very limited
  | movements on the edges or corners.
