Does "no checks" mean...

1). it is illegal to put the opponent's King in check?
2). if the King is threatened by a Piece, and the threat is not neutralised, it can be taken?

1) Yes
2) threat on king = check ...a different move must be played...if no other move is possible then that side would lose as they would be out of legal moves.

Thanks for clarifying, it sounds interesting.
