Edit: Description of Your Submission

Choose the format you will write in.

Format:

If you know HTML, please use HTML mode. Hypertext Markup Language is what most webpages are written in, and using it will give you the most control. To help you out, HTML mode uses CKEditor's Source mode, which will provide you with syntax highlighting and code formatting.
If you don't know HTML, Markdown is the recommended alternative. This is an intuitive markup language that provides appropriate HTML translations for common conventions used in Text documents, combining the power of HTML with the ease of writing plain text. Your Markdown will be stored in the database as Markdown, and it will be converted to HTML only when displayed. You may also mix in HTML, since it will remain unchanged when your Markdown is converted.
The Text format will display your text as is without additional formatting so long as you do not include any HTML tags. But if you do enter HTML, it will display it as HTML. This gives you the option to write HTML without CKEditor reformatting it.
In case you have more experience with word processors and are not at all familiar with markup languages, the WYSIWYG format will emulate the experience of using a word processor by showing you rendered HTML instead of your actual HTML code. If you are comforable with HTML or Markdown, it is best to avoid this mode. Even switching to it briefly can alter your HTML in undesirable ways.

Description

If players have elected to include external
pieces (Bombards), they may either move a piece or pawn, or drop the extra piece from the
reserve. The Bombards may only be dropped on the first rank, on an empty square
behind a friendly pawn. The friendly pawn is immediately relocated one square
ahead, to a position which must be empty. If these conditions aren't satisfied
then the Bombard cannot be dropped. This is a new and good way of introducing an extra piece.
 
 
The Bombard is a type of cannon that can slide in any direction like a queen. It can capture
only by leaping over any piece. If the nearest piece after the leap is an
enemy piece, then it can be captured. Enemy pawns, however, can
restrict its movement. The Bombard can only reach the square immediately behind
the enemy pawn, regardless of leaping direction. By example, if the black king
is checked on the g-file, it can defend itself by moving the pawn forward.
While its tactical capacity is truncated the Bombard can harmonize with the
positional qualities of the game. Positioned two or more steps behind a friendly
pawn, it can threaten an enemy Bombard, which cannot threaten back. This is an
important positional aspect.
