RN205 Kick the Can. The King is a Can, positioned at centermost b-file square in White, i-file in Black, and cannot move. In lieu of checkmate, Kicking the Can wins, as per each modality below. (a) no effect (b) King so set up cannot move or capture. King, fully surrounded adjacently 8 ways, orthogonally and diagonally, by either side's pieces and Pawns is ipso facto 'kicked' for Checkmate. Player can self-Checkmate but it is stupid. Enemy units adjacent to King are uncapturable at all. (c) 'b' except King is able to move and capture but only in direction of the Cauldron, files e and f, whence King cannot further move (d) 'b' with 7 surrounding units able to Kick the Can (e) 'b' with 6 units effecting Kicking the King(Can) (f) 'c' and 'd' (g) 'b' with Pawns able to move, not capture, laterally one step (h) 'c' and 'g' (i) 'c', 'd' and 'g' (j) 'c' with Pawns being full Quadra-Pawns(Centennial-like) having crossed the center line once (k) 'c', 'd' and 'j' (l) 'b' and 'j' (m) 'j' these mutated quadra-Pawns cannot capture backwards. (n) 'g' and King can Kick back three times per game, meaning displacing any piece one square in the direction of the King's 'attack', with however King not moving, but the defensive maneuvre itself constituting a full turn (o) 'n', King can Kick back twice only. (p) King has the right to Kick back once only. Cumulative: 7.01843456 x 10^31 Chess Rules-sets Variations.
