The 'two-step' rule for the Mad Queen Pawn was to speed up the opening
game and the development of the Pawn structure on the field. Thus 'en
passant' to return the right of capture to the opponent.

It should not be necessary to give it a 'three-step' privilege if the
Pawns are located to the third rank of the 10 rank field. In addition,
with an increase of power pieces, especially leapers, any multiple-step
privilege of the Pawn could be re-evaluated.

And with a large number of power pieces, a developer might utilize the
Shogi Pawn. Forcing the players to devote a number of pieces to protect
them.
