@Amy, I've reduced the repetition of material in each section, and some other light editing.  Please check that it reads alright to you.

Does the RF-checkmate mean any checkmate in which the RF takes some part, or must the RF be delivering check?  What about when the RF "contributes" but is redundant (other pieces cover its attack squares)?  (Maybe these questions don't actually matter, given the RF's restrictions; I haven't thought about any specific position yet.)

You say the RF prioritizes "safe" squares, but from the subsequent discussion it sounds like perhaps you meant "empty"?
