17 | | Instead of a normal move, a piece may be exchanged with an adjacent friendly one. | |
18 | | Switching can move pawns until rank 1 or final rank. In the first case a 2-squares, | |
19 | | jump is possible, and in the second a promotion occurs. | |
20 | | Switching must involves two different units. | |
21 | | Switching while the king is under check is not allowed. | |

24 | Note: if the king and rook are on two adjacent squares, castling and switching | |
25 | from the king are triggered in the same way. Castling takes priority: | |
26 | if you wanna switch, use the rook. | |
