Peter,

It seems like another new game is about to be born in the comments system.
 It looks like a very good one.  If drawishness is a problem because of
hoarding cards as you suggest it may be, perhaps the answer is to use a
stronger than FIDE army to compensate for the difficulites of moving.

K and Amazon vs K should be more winnable than K and Q vs K as fewer moves
are needed=card hoarding is less effective. But I would really prefer the
FIDE army if the game is playable with it.
