In Moscow (Russia) there is a club that plays The game of Dessau
Many people participate. The game called Quad Chess (or Kvadratichnye
Shakhmaty)

Your page is missing some info about rulls:
1. If one of the players is mated, his pieces can not be taken (in
addition that they can't move)
2. King still can't go to the checked areas of mated player
3. Team players can't talk to each other
4. When two pawn (from 2 players of the same team) reach one another next
moving pawn jumps over the other one (moving 2 spaces). It can because a
different peice ones it reach the end (even if it's on the side of the
cross)

also as far as I know, pawns can make initian 2 space jump.
