For the game each player needs 7 queens, 4 rooks, 2 bishops, 2 knights and 1 king. The game is played without pawns. The conquer rule applies - see below.
King and knight move in the standard way, the moves for queen, rook and bishop are restricted.
The game is played on the usual 8 x 8 standard board. The FIDE rules apply - with the following exceptions.
