I have my doubts on the value of combining independent exotic rule modifications. It is usually obvious that this can be done, and it would lead to a combinatorial explosion of the number of variants. E.g. you could put the Bull's Eye in the center of a 10x8 board with Archbishop and Chancellor, and wrap the board around like a cylinder, and make the Queen contageous, and shuffle the pieces on the back-rank of the initial position...

I think a good idea is best presented in its pure form, without any distraction. I don't see how addition of a Bull's Eye would solve any problem in Conquer, and Vice Versa.
