+<h2><a name="tag-D17">Another interpretation of Asia rules</a></h2>
+<p>
+For perpetual-chase detection in Xiangqi XBoard had been relying on the legal-moves-only interpretation of Asia rules,
+where attacks or protectors are considered not to exist when you are in check,
+because you cannot legally capture or recapture in that case.
+It turns out this interpretation is not the one most commonly used.
+So we have switched to an interpretation where one does consider captures that leave the King in an already existing check,
+or recaptures that leave the King in a check that already existed before the capture
+(provided these are the only checks it is left in).
