Key Rule Differences:
No Check or Checkmate:
Unlike traditional chess, BoTHS eliminates the concepts of check and checkmate. Players have the liberty to freely move their kings into check positions without facing immediate consequences.
King Movement:
Each player can move their king without restraint to a position under threat, as there is no inherent penalty for being in check.
Winning the Game:
The primary goal is to capture the opponent's king. The player who successfully captures the opponent's king emerges victorious in the game.
