32 The initial setup contains only the pawns.
33 Indeed, at the first move you can arrange the pieces as you wish behind the
34 pawns line. You must place every one of them, with rooks on the first rank.

50p.
51 A pawn can promote when, at the beginning of a turn, it is placed on any of
52 the marked squares (from a player point of view).
53 You can either promote on a diagonally adjacent square (if it is empty),
54 or in place: this last option is obtained in the interface by "moving" one
55 square backward.
56 If you only have one pawn remaining, it can promote from any square.
57 Promotion is always in a general, and you can have only one general on the
58 board.

59 The promoted general cannot attack any opponent's piece, nor can he discover
60 a rook attack on the enemy king.
