If you do revamp to smaller.

The Horseman from Xchess (
http://www.chessvariants.com/large.dir/xhess.html ) rather than pawns might
add a rather interesting touch

'This piece was inspired by the Cavalier from Fergus Duniho's Cavalier
Chess. It moves like a combination of a orthodox chess pawn plus a
non-capturing Horse (from Xiangqi), but can only move forward and cannot
leap other pieces. No en-passant or initial two-move. Normal chess-type
promotion.'
