Replacement pieces for Pawn promotion are obtained from those which were
captured.  Rooks are often turned up-side down to represent extra Queens. 
If none are available, use a Checker under the promoted Pawn to represent
the new Queen.

Pawn promotion may also include other pieces besides the Queen.
