Pieces

Black Swans move and behave like Pawns, but they bring unpredictability into the game. 

Black Swans cannot be captured on their starting position. 

Rules

Black Swans will have to move at least one square before being fliped over and replaced by their "hidden power". 

Notes

To be continued. Please be patient.
