Domedary Chess

No Dromedary participates, but the King induces Dromedary moves in adjacent friendly pieces.

Too bad the XBetza specification of the move induction is so awful. This is mainly due to the large incongruence between the inducing step (K) and the induced step (C, H). That two different moves have to be induced also doesn't help. I really should find something better for this.
