Madrasi: Units, other than Kings, are paralysed when they attack each other. Paralysed units cannot move, capture or give check, their only power being that of causing paralysis.
Rokagogo: A King and a Rook may castle everytime and everywhere (even when they have already moved) if:
• both are one the same rank or file
• there are at least two squares between them
• all squares between them are empty
• the King is not in check and he does not move over an observed square.
Castling is done by moving the King two squares towards the Rook and then moving the Rook to the square behind the King.
No.1336Nicolas Dupont France original – 20.10.2018
In the recent JF problem 1331, Kostas constructed an almost one-sided double
Valladao, only the castlings were bi-sided. I therefore had a quite exotic idea:
addition of the fairy condition Rokagogo, which allows several castlings from
the same side. It leads to this problem - a fully one-sided double Valladao (first
illustration I guess), where moreover the thematic promotions are captured
(Ceriani-Frolkin theme). It is Jacobi C+ until position 14.0 and from position 4.0
to position 18.0 (with the Madrasi condition alone). (Author)
Why not allow the castling on the diagonals also? 🙂

Is Rokagogo the same condition that is called CastlingChess in Popeye?

In CastlingChess, it is possible to “castle” with a king and another piece-type than a rook, which is not allowed in Rokagogo. It looks like CastlingChess is called “Roque” in WinChloe.
