But then you'd make certain pieces immobile?

The promotion of Goat to Lioness is a given, right? Since the Lioness is a
strict superset of the Goat.

Could you devise a couple more pawns? hehe... It's just one pet peeve of
mine, that you go to the number of pieces of each type and it's 1, 1,
..., 2, 2, ..., and suddenly, 8! hehe. Find it a bit inelegant, if you
know what I mean. Maybe 4 pawns on the center, 4 berolinas on the sides?

I give no ranking because I probably won't get the chance to play this,
though a few strategy guidelines would be nice. In any case, it sounds
pretty interesting!
