Done. The reason why I tagged it with Stalemating: Loss is because Couch Tomato wrote "stalemateValue=win" instead of "stalemateValue=loss" in https://discord.com/channels/634298688663191582/897605673288863754/909153508756951060. Though it was probably a mistake since that's probably the only message that indirectly says stalemate is a win for the stalemated player. I deleted the tag using the blue X.

Edit: https://discord.com/channels/779317816897699850/791247944463417374/956633220588376144 also says stalemateValue=win.

Why is there no black Janus?

The setup diagram has been included.

It's originally a Scratch project.

With it's own King help, 2 Rooks can force checkmate a lone King without a board's edge.

A list of pieces with their estimated value on 8x8.
Some are from zillion, interactive diagram, someone's opinion, etc
Take these after having added a pinch of salt which weighs approximately 65 mg, which is about how much table salt a person might pick up between the fingers.
Some pieces are renamed by me or my own invention that I've never shared, but most pieces should be pieces that you can find in this site.

Ahnung by Stuart Spence, AKA Zulban

It means non-capture move.

That gave me a lame knight.

Also called Scorpion Chess.

VI - Lovers by Aldiyar, AKA 1254

But with shuffle.

This page is about XBetza notation. t[FR] is from the original funny notation while [cr], [ca], and [cw] are from Bex notation.

gB is a Bishopper. Nereid is a Bishop that captures like a Bishop-Locust.

I only have tested it against the Fabulous FIDEs using Play-Test Applet. Though that was back in 2022, I forgor the results.

The royal piece is usually the last piece on the piece table.

Your Nereid is mBcgB. That's not how the Nereid from fairy chess problems moves (the XBetza notation is correct though). In problemist language, the orthogonal counterpart of Nereid is "Triton".
