'JKL,LargeCV': First comment for Janus Chess, which maybe first proposes Janus(B+N) paired on 8x10, a reasonable idea quarter century ago. CVPage 2004 Archbishop Chess copies the piece-mix and shifts Janus(Cardinal) to d & g. Cardinal is marginally more logical than Marshall(R+N); both compounds go back to 17th-century Carrera's.
