I would like clarification on a few points:
a) Is the board a vertical cylinder: ie do the right & left sides meet, but
not the top & bottom edges?
b) Is it legal for an officer piece to go right around the cylinder back to
its starting square (effectively a null or passing move?)
c) Can the pushmepullyu piece capture an enemy piece by withdrawal, go
round the cylinder, and stop where the captured piece was located?
d) Can the pushmepullyu capture two pieces in the same move, one by
advancement, and one by withdrawal?
e) When the chameleon captures a King, does it do so with a knight-jump or
with a Queen-slide?
f) Is it correct that the pawn moves one or two steps straight-forward,
diagonally forward, or sideways?
g) Is it correct that the pawn can make its sandwich-capture orthogonally &
diagonally, possibly capturing up to seven pieces in one go?
h) Is pawn promotion compulsory (assuming that there is a captured piece
available for promotion?
