I assume that blessings and curses take a turn, as The Hitchhiker's Guide To Chess mentioned that in Living Chess (I'm not sure which variant in the Guide) pieces who breed get older because they moved but you couldn't see it, and by analogy, blessings and curses would count as a move. Also, I'm thinking of a variant called Twin Knights Chess where the knights are replaced with the ghostly generals, which I assume make the double move once. We could also add Twin Rooks Chess, in which the rooks move the same number of squares in the same direction in one move instead of the knights, and, logically, Twin Bishops Chess.
