My thanks to M. Winther for starting this thread back on [2006-04-22].
My chessvariant activities take me farther and farther away from the FIDE piece set. I have a few general ideas on using Shatranj strength pieces on a 16x16 board, with stalemate counting as a victory. Perhaps 30 to 48 pieces on each side, arranged in two 'ISLAND KINGDOMS' surrounded by empty squares. See Chess on a 12 by 12 board for a similar (but smaller) setup.
