Why are there no pieces displayed? Even when I try customizing the preset.

Sorry Fergus I meant to comment on this preset. All I get is a blank board.

Unfortunately the preset is wrong, at least in my mind: Pawns promote on the 9th rank to any piece (including Queen and Templar).

I'd like to playtest a variant of this where one of the boards is mirrored. So capturing an enemy piece on one board would eliminate a friendly piece on the other.

In the case a pawn is on the 7th rank without a piece captured (unlikely), let's say you can move it to the 8th rank and remains a pawn unless its twin promotes later.
