This message is mostly for HG.  The Queen is alway royal, once checkmated the game is over.  Fergus'es Cassia Britania has the royal queen, and mine is based on his.  The King, semi-royal.  Etiquette is to give a check warning, but you can ignore it.  The King can move into check.  The consequences of a King capture, the player must do a frog conversion move, unless you are in queen check.  So your player will be forced to do a frog drop.  Pick up an existing frog and place it on any empty space.  (Taking the definition of drop from the game of shogi) .  If you have no frogs you lost the game.  There is no 'after-move' to retaliate, and the game ends if the King is captured, and you have no frogs.  The impact (I think) will be the player will be forced to manage his frogs, and use his turns to protect the king and queen.
