Balancing a game with different pieces AND possibly different objectives is
a tricky business. Since Magna Carta Chess started as a particular
proposal with historical theme constraints, it should be finalized as
such. I would not consider subsequent efforts seeking a similar or maybe
somewhat dissimilar CV to be spinoffs.
