Each member of the two-player team controls one army of pieces. As in the 4-person game, the order of play proceeds clockwise around the board one color at a time. All of the orthodox rules of chess apply unless otherwise noted herein. A pawn may advance either one or two squares the first time it moves. On subsequent moves, the pawn may advance one square forward.
Pawns capture other pieces with a forward diagonal move.
Unlike other pawns, point pawns have the option of moving towards either enemy array from the beginning position. Pawns cannot reverse course. Pawns circled in the diagram below are the point pawns. Once a pawn has moved to the other side of the board where it can no longer move forward, it is promoted and may become a Queeen. Captured pieces are removed from the board.
