An expected indication, H.G. The assumption that an avatarius can hardly be checkmated as a normal avatar, I had already suspected.

So let's exclude this possibility and assume that the avatarius has only move possibilities like a king in normal chess. Then we have normal chess enriched with changing move possibilities.

Theoretically and exclusively in the short term, Avatar Chess can have 6 queens, 12 rooks, 12 knights and 12 bishops in play. 

Is that too special or is that a crass challenge?
