==Rules (main variant)==
The rules are the same as those for standard [[Chess rules|chess]], except for the following special rules:
* Capturing is compulsory.
** When more than one capture is available, the capturing player may choose.
* The [[king (chess)|king]] has no {{chessprobgloss|royal piece|royal power}}, being effectively replaced by a [[mann (chess)|mann]], and accordingly:
** it may be captured like any other piece; 
** there is no [[check (chess)|check]] or [[checkmate]];
*** therefore the king may expose itself to capture;
** there is no [[castling]];
** a pawn may also be [[Promotion (chess)|promoted]] to a king.
* [[Stalemate]] is a win for the stalemated player (the player with no legal moves). This includes having no remaining pieces on the board.

Draws by [[threefold repetition|repetition]], [[draw by agreement|agreement]], or the [[fifty-move rule]] work as in standard chess. Positions when neither player can win are also draws: for example, when the only pieces remaining are {{chessgloss|bishops of opposite colors}}. (This is similar to the dead position rule in standard chess.)
