Chess with Promoters. Missing description (8x8, Cells: 64) [All Comments] [Add Comment or Rating]

Promoter promotion is prohibited?  Perfect.

I personally prefer the prohibition of prehension of pieces by Promoters,
as it places the promoters in a pacifistic position where their perilous
promoting power is best placed in proximity to pieces of your own.  Why
pick off pieces when your position is productive for the other player?
