What are the origins of te pieces names?

Mostly the Mecklemberg, Defending and Fish pawns?

Thanks!

Pao or Grasshopper placed on a square of row 2 or 9 in opposition of enemy King is vevy dangerous.

I'd like to add my thumbs up to Pick-the-team chess that can be extremely intense with two aggressive players.

It's very good game. I can suggest rule to make one pawn- pieces, 10 or 8
(depending on board size) of same pieces must be put on 2nd rank.
Pawns may have such propertys: they must not have more than 6 options to go
and no more than 2 of them can return pawn to previous rank; pawns only
pieces, wich can promote.
By the way, there are one mistake in your list of pieces: the thing, you
called 'Chinese pawn' is rather Japanese pawn: Chines pawn can also move
sideways on opponent's half of board and can't promote.
