The Eurasian Pawn and Next Chess are exercises so long as 1 billion
people are playing one CV on 64 squares and 100 os us have designed 1000s
nobody much plays. Eurasian conventionalized for 10x10 represents a
different way to design CVs rather than 1x1x1 to a million. The first CVer,
T.R. Dawson, was above designing even one CV. The 2 billion who know rules
of OrthoChess64 from China to Chile 99% know nothing of Alice Chess or any
other CV than Fischer's. Centennial may err giving omni-Pawn two-step
origination because of its Rank Two behind regular Pawns. On same 10x10
Eurasian Pawn has one potential to start Rank Three and become piece-like, an
advance force to speed development, being of near-Pawn value but
piece-characteristic. A good example of a Pawn-value piece is Centennial's own Spearman, 
http://www.chessvariants.org/large.dir/contest/cenchess.html. Low-value Spearman is not at all insignificant. 
I am getting interested temporarily in that
Pawn-piece interface, as in follow-up.
