Craig,

The rule is actully well thought-out and quite original. This is the only
game I'm aware of (with one royal piece) that provides for both checkmate
and King capture. The one-turn penalty for allowing the King to be
captured is exactly right--by making the opponent actually capture your
King, you have required him/her to use an extra move vs. checkmate, so the
rules require you to give that move back. Well done!
