Ministers Chess. Two queens on each side on a 9x9 board, available commercially.[All Comments] [Add Comment or Rating]The inventor claims that the both-bishops-bound-to-the-same-color problem is fixed by a special move that allows a bishop to shift one space to the opposite spacing (dark to light for both players).

Thus, the dark spaces still possess some pre-eminence in bishop power.
