Castling as a King move is a good idea, I think. The endgame. Hmm. A K +
Q vs K endgame could be stymied by the player with the bare King holding
on to the KQ, PQ and (Wild) cards. I wonder if some additional mechanism
is called for. Of course, it needs to be seen if this game comes down to
situations like that. Pawns are relatively mobile, and because there are
many cards that let Pawns move, they defend each other with greater
effectiveness than other pieces. It seems to indicate that Pawnless
endgames may not be as common as in usual Chess.
