Raumschach (rules enforcing)
This page contains one or more presets for playing a game online with Game Courier, an online server for playing Chess variants by correspondence.
This Game Courier preset will enforce the rules of Raumschach.
In this implementation, I've made pawns capture with a diagonal move composed of one forward and one non-forward direction; that is, forward-upward capture is not possible here. I also only allow pawn promotion at the forwardmost row (E*5 for white, A*1 for black).(Original preset by David Paulowich, rules testing coded by Ben Reiniger.)
