O, so in other words, in this game pawns can make an initial double-step on a light square in the first two rows, I suppose.

Actually, no. The capture would be that particular pawn's initial move.

What happens when a pawn on the back row captures to the second row, as in b1xc2? Does that pawn still get to make a 2-space move since it's on a square where a pawn could do that?

First, thanks for naming this neat game for my daughter Paloma! She will be thrilled (as soon as she can play!). The feature that the Queen may not enter a square that is attacked and the starting setup should make this game very interesting. I have also posted a Game Courier preset for Paloma Chess.
