Daphne, I don't know if you prefer communicate (in PM?) with another language, I speak Fr, Sp, It. What I mean is that your rules of castling seems to apply equally for King and Jade. If yes, then you could simply write King/Jade because as it is written, it is confusing.

My English is not very good either, but "to be castle" is not correct.

The rules of castling in chess are complex but they are less complex if one understands the history. Castling should be the 1st move of the King and the concerned Rook. It is a kind of dogma. Now, we are talking "variants" so you can decide what you want. Personally I like the idea that the player forfeits his right of castle if he moves the piece. But it's up to you.

Why do you need to have another names like Apricot and Whole (why these strange names?) for something which is exactly the Queen. Why not simply saying "Queen"?
