ICC Help: wild17

Wild 17 is the variant Loser's Chess. There are three differences from ordinary chess:

(1) If it is possible to make a capture move, then you must make a capture move.

(2) If all of your pieces are taken (you have a lone king), you win the game.

(3) If you are stalemated or checkmated (in the sense of ordinary chess) you win the game.

You can start a game of Loser's Chess by typing "match johnny losers".
