There seems to be a typo in the promotion rule for Strong Makruk (Kuhn instead of Kohn).
The diagram is rather ugly cut & paste work.
I guess it should be possible to make an Interactive Diagram for this variant, though; it falls in the category of 'regular variants', which only differ from orthodox Chess by having different sliders, leapers and their compounds and board-size parameters.
I once tested the effect of limiting the promotion choice to weaker pieces, (like only Knights), and it turned out there almost wasn't any. I suppose that in practice promotions can almost always be prevented by sacrificing a minor for the Pawn that is going to promote or has just been promoted. So promotion is worth a minor. For promotion of pieces weaker than a Knight (such as Silver or Ferz) this might no longer be true, though.
