Thanks, Jose. ;)

Actually another option would be to place the Minister where the King side Bishop usually stands - since it is also a Bishop you wouldn't be changing anything - then you would have the opposite coloured Bishops.

You then put the King side Bishop where the Queen is and put the Queen on the other side of the King as in normal Chess.

So like this:

But yeh, 9x9's are irritating. lol.
