These are three rules which may be added to standard chess to create
a variant in which draws are impossible:
The two squares on which the kings begin are marked with an "X"
and are throne squares. A player can win the game by mating his opponent
OR moving his king to his opponents throne.
No player may make a move which causes a previous configuration to
be duplicated.
If a play has no legal move, he loses. (This includes both stalemates
and situations created by rule "2".)
