I don't really understand this game. This paragraph is particularly cryptic:
Fools are forbidden to step onto a square that means that the enemy king is on a square that the fool could have reached (had it been unoccupied). On the other hand, the enemy king is forbidden to step onto a square that the fool could have reached in just one move, so the fools can contribute to mating the enemy king. The king can take out the fool, but the fool can not take out the king.
Also, the statement that "Castling is free" isn't very descriptive. Does this mean the historic free castling rule?
And there are other confusing things as well. If the author is around to clarify, that would be great. If not, and someone else understands what is meant here and can help clarify this text, that would be also be fine. If this doesn't happen in 30 days, I will hide this page.
