  18     The additional piece is a royal figure, thus cannot be captured.
  19     It captures the pieces of his color (to help checkmate opponent antiking,
  20     but by doing so it also make standard checkmate more difficult...).
  21     It should always remains under check (if it cannot, game is over).

  30 p There are two ways to win:
  31 ol
  32     li Checkmate opponent king
  33     li Anti-checkmate opponent antiking

  37     Note 1: athough antiking captures his color, it doesn't check his king -
  38     it doesn't check the opponent's king either.

  40 p.
  41     Note 2: since it would allow a basic tactic (keep antiking touching opponent's
  42     king), kings do not attack antikings.
