Whoops! The first posted version (1.0 under history) has a bug -- bare King happens with 3 pieces left! The latest version (1.1 under history) fixes this. Sorry about that.

Another bug found (by the game's inventors and by Antoine Fourrière) -- Pawns were capturing with their double-move! Also, the Newtons found that Rooks couldn't use the magic carpet squares. These bugs have been fixed, resulting in version 1.2 of the ZRF (check the history).
