p.
  White (resp. Black) pawns move one square diagonally north-west: h1 to a8
  (resp. south-east: a8 to h1).
  White (resp. Black) pawns capture on the adjacent orthogonal squares either
  up or to the left (resp. down or to the right).
  This is natural after rotating the board by 45° clockwise,
  explaining the name "Diamond Chess".
