Glossary
Dynamo Chess is a fairy variant of chess where there are no ordinary captures. Instead the men have the ability to pull or push (possibly outside the board) other men.
A dynamo move by a line piece (Q, R, or B) consists of pushing or pulling another man (of either color) observed by the line piece along the line; the line piece itself may remain stationary or it may move along the line in the same direction as the other man.
A dynamo move by a leaper (K, N, or P) observing another man (of either color) consists of the leaper remaining stationary or moving to the other man's square and pushing the man one step away in the same direction, or it consists of the leaper moving in the opposite direction and pulling the other man to the leaper's old square.
A dynamo move can affect at most one other man. Men disappear from the board by moving off it themselves, or by being pushed off it, or by being pulled off it by a line piece that also disappears.
Check means threatening to make the opponent king disappear by pushing or pulling.
The moving man and the affected other man (if any) must respect other men standing around, just like in ordinary chess: you cannot jump over another man, nor may two men occupy the same square.

Here is the proof game, exhibiting many weird Dynamo moves:
The wPd2 made a roundtrip.
