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
b406466b 11 every turn. The goal is to checkmate.

23 In the diagram position on the left, after the first black move ...e5,
24 the 'd' pawn is pinned because moving it would allow 2.Bb5,Bxe8 capturing
25 the king.
26 On the right, after 2.Qf3,Bc4 black king is under check because of
27 the options 3.Bxf7,Bxe8 or 3.Qxf7,Qxe8.

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

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