-<h3>Pawn peculiarities</h3>
-<ul>
-<li>Pawns capture differently from how they move (straight move, diagonal capture).</li>
-<li>Pawns can move two squares ahead from their initial position, provided they are not blocked.</li>
-<li>On the move immediately after such a double push, they can be captured en passant by another Pawn,
-as if they had only moved 1 square ahead.</li>
-<li>Pawns promote to another (non-royal) piece of choice when they reach last rank.</li>
-</ul>
-<h3>Castling</h3>
-<p>
-A King that has not moved before can move two squares in the direction of a Rook that has not moved before,
-in which case that Rook is moved to the square the King skipped over.
-This is only allowed when the King is not in check, on the square it came from and would not be in check on the square it skipped over.
-</p>
-<h3>General rules</h3>
-<ul>
-<li>It is not allowed to expose your King to check.</li>
-<li>The game is won by checkmating the opponent's King.</li>
-<li>Stalemate (no legal moves, but not in check) is a draw.</li>
-</ul>
-<h3>Differences with FIDE</h3>
-<p>
-None.
-</p>
-<h3>Strategy issues</h3>
-<p>
-It is not possible to force checkmate on a bare King with just a single Bishop or Knight (in addition to your own King).
-</p>
-<p>
-Bishops are confined to squares of a single color.
-Having Bishops on both colors compensates this weakness, and is worth an extra 0.5 on top of their added value.
-</p>
-<p>
-As Chancellor and Queen are nearly equal in value to Queen, under-promotion is very common.
