potential unforseen consequence of this rule: making it harder to checkmate in the middlegame with the queen (now general)
in regular chess, it usually doesnt matter if a queen is protected as you should not expose it to capture either way... however you are perfectly content to "expose" a protected queen to capture by the enemy king as the king cant capture it
in this variant, you are not content to expose the general to the enemy king, as the enemy king can just igui
the queen is often directly adjacent to the king in middlegame checkmates, but a general would often just be captured in that situation
