That's okay. Thank you for clarifying that.

Well, the Mamra would be no problem; capture of it by non-Pawns can be specified through the captureMatrix. The Wuss obviously is a second royal piece (with absolute royalty). But the rule that you cannot resolve a check on it through capture or interposition is hard to implement. Because the AI of the Interactive Diagram is currently not aware whether it is in check or not.

Perhaps a future version (that implements null move) would be able to do it.

@H.G., would it be possible to add an interactive diagram for this variant, particularly this setting? - https://www.chessvariants.com/play/pbm/play.php?game=Mamra+Chess+with+Wuss&settings=defaultx It seems to be an interesting one, and it was played on GC more than 30 times.

Thank you for your time.
