Here is new CV. OrthoChess 8x8.  Queen each turn plays according to the
toss of a die. Each turn consists in rolling the die and moving normally.
Queen as ''the die'' starts at regular d1 (Die-1?). It is not mandatory to move
her, whatever she is, but you have to roll first to show what she is. If
the Die is 1, Queen is Queen for that one turn; 2 Cannon; 3 Falcon; 4
Squirrel; 5 Quintessence; 6 Long Leaper. The next turn the ''Die''
may, and probably will (5/6), change, namely if the number changes. Notice
that a prospective Checkmate, upcoming otherwise, may be voided by the roll
of the Die of White and White's move thereupon, or the Die of Black, upon
Black's  move follow-up.
