In your list of chess variants in the "Anti-King" variant you have "antiroyal=AP", surely that should be "antiroyal=A" i.e. only the Anti-Kings (and not also the Pawns) should be antiroyal.

    Many thanks for proof-reading and sending error reports. C/CIF is still under construction, so it's likely that I've done many mistakes. I'm not a specialist for chess variants, in fact I've explored all these variants to become clear about the design of C/CIF (with exploring Taikyoku-Shogi I've found out that I have to support more than 256 diffferent piece types, now up to 1024 piece types are possible). In C/CIF library (still in development, about 70% finished) only a few variants are marked as "verified", these are the variants in bold on page Chess Variants. A variant will become "verified" if any specialist has proofed (and probably corrected) the description. In application Scidb I'm supporting a few variants, and these variants are already "verified" (and correct, I hope).

    You're right, "antiroyal=AP" was a mistake, and now it's corrected.
