That rule caught me up too. In regular chess if it is your opponents turn and their only pieces are a king in the 1,8 square and a pawn that is pressed up against one of your pawns and you have rooks in the 2,1 and 8,7 squares that counts as a victory does it not?

No. That is a draw assuming it is the player with only a king’s turn to move.

Translating your notation to normal chess notation:

White king on h1, black rooks on a2 and g8, black king in some random other place, white to move.

That is a draw, because white is NOT in check, but has no legal moves. That scenario is called stalemate. If white were in check, it would be checkmate and a win for black. Set it up on any chess analysis board website and it will say the game is a draw.
