This is the Grand Final in the Mega Dog Tournament.

It is bulldog chess with witch and guard between @JustARandomPatzer (white) and @Martin0 (black).

The Winners Bracket champion @Martin0 needs to beat the Losers Bracket champion @JustARandomPatzer only once to win the tournament. @JustARandomPatzer must beat @Martin0 twice to win the tournament (this is because in double elimination players are eliminated after their second loss and if the W bracket champion loses one game it would be his first loss).

The game will follow the correspondence rules posted here.

Time Control: 3 days/move

Timeout Warnings: 24 hours to make a move after a warning. Maximum 3 warnings. Refreshes every 40th move

Vacation Time: 14 days. Refreshes every 40th move.

Rated: This is a rated game.

Setup: See image below

null

Note that the position of Black's king and queen are switched compared to classical chess.

Pieces:
Guard (G) - Moves and captures like a king.

null

Witch (W) - The rules for the witch can be found here.

null

Castling:
The rules of castling are similar as in classical chess. However, with the board 10 squares wide, the king travels three squares rather than two. The rook finishes adjacent to the king. All squares between the king and rook must be unoccupied, with the exception of transparent pieces (see witch rules).

Promotion: Pawns can promote to guard and witch in addition to queen, rook, bishop or knight.

Other rules of this game are identical with rules of classical chess.

Good luck!
