This is a very well-conceived large-board variant. It is available commercially from my cyberfriend, Daniel C. Macdonald of Canada.

Pieces move as in regular chess. Pawns may advance 1, 2 or 3 squares on their initial moves, and be captured en passant.

There are two new pieces.

Champion       2,2 or 2,0 or 1,0 leaper
Wizard       3,1 or 1,1 leaper. Note that this piece is color-bound.
