5 Conversion occurs when the amount of persuasion exceeds the
6 amount of support. Pieces persuade and support according to
7 their standard attack moves. Opposing pieces persuade, friendly support.

10 For example on the following diagram, 1.Nf5 attacks g7.
11 Since the bishop is undefended, it turns white. Same for the pawn e7.
12 Then, the rook f8 is converted. This allows to convert both the knight
13 on d8 and the bishop on g8. Finally, the pawns f7 and h7 are under attack
14 and thus also change color.

24 The game ends when a king is converted, and the side cannot convert a king
25 at the next turn. Note that kings may be exchanged, as on the following
26 diagram: 1...g6 would convert back the original black king on e7, but
27 1...Nb6 is also possible, turning the white one on a4 into black.

50 It is possible for pieces to persuade or support through other
51 friendly pieces. For example, rooks and queens in the same orthogonal
52 or bishops and queens in the same diagonal.
53 li.
54 The Pawn is forbidden to move through a cell which is overly persuaded
55 during its initial two-step move.
56 li.
57 A King is allowed to move to cells which are being persuaded as
58 long as the level of persuasion is not greater than its support.
