Glad to see two of the main supporters of Petteia XXI, battling it out in
the 'City'!
Good luck to both of you!

Preset Particulars:
In Chess Courrier the Minister (Bishop & Knight) is called the Archbishop,
and uses the initial A for the name of the piece:
White Minister=A
Black Minister=a
==
White's pieces are in Capital letters
(K=King,Q=Queen,A=Minister,R=Rook,B=Bishop,N=Knight,P=Pawn)
Black's pieces are in lower case letters
(k=King,q=Queen,a=Minister,r=Rook,b=Bishop,n=Knight,p=Pawn)
==
Castling:
a-castling:
White: K-c1;R-d1;-e1;-a1
Black: k-c9;r-d9;-e9;-a9
i-castling:
White: K-g1;R-f1;-e1;-i1
Black: k-g9;r-f9;-e9;-i9
==
Bishop-Castling:

White: B-b1;N-c1
Black: b-b9;n-c9
c-Bishop castling:
White (with Minister): B-d1;A-c1
Black (with Queen) : b-d9;q-c9
g-Bishop castling with Knight:

...d8-d6] equivalent e6xd7 e.p.)
-e6;P-d7;-d6
Sample 2: Black's g4-Pawn takes White's h-Pawn ([after White's h2-h4]
equivalent ...g4xh3 e.p.)
-g4;p-h3;-h4

Sample 1: White's Pawn at c8 moves to c9 and promotes to a Queen
[c8-c9=Q]
P c8-c9;Q-c9
Sample 2: Black's Pawn at g2 takes at h1 and promotes to a Minister
(Archbishop) [hxg1=a]
p g2-h1;a-h1
Stephen,
Before we go to far, I need you to know (as it is not clear from the
instructions posted on CV right now), that the Bishop can actually
'castle' with either the knight or the queen/minister next to it, as
long as neither piece has moved.
It is optional to do the Bishop-castling (and it can only be done with one
of the Bishops, but not both). This is the move that converts one of the
Bishops from the black squares to the white squares.
I'm working on building the preset to recognize the special rules of
Modern Chess, but for the time being, we are playing the first trial game
of the preset.
Probably the first game ever of Modern Chess played in the internet.
Thanks for trying the variation (and making history).
