Yes, sure i understand it, but normal chess is also sometimes played with
handicaps - when one of players want to show his talent or want to simplify
game for weaker opponent, so i meant 'have queen at least some
chances?'.
By the way, i got new idea: maharaja is approximately same value of normal
chess army... There are also another interesting game with different
armies: one player controls normal pieces and his opponent controls 32
pawns ('horde')... So there can be game 'Maharaja vs horde'! Is this
game possible?
