I wanted to keep this game as simple as possible, but an optional variant could be played with the addition of Pawn twins, capturable the same way as the other twins. Each Pawn would have its corresponding twin on the other board. Keeping track of the pairs would become difficult as Pawns make captures and shift across the board. Over the board, different color poker chips could distinguish these stray pairs. Playing on Game Courier would require unique Pawn images of some kind.
