By "naturally," I mean "only the way a plan can move normally."

 So, you can double move at the start, and can switch rows by capturing a piece, and you'll still make them a queen when they reach the end zone.

So if I use Rook Stones, I'm basically forfeiting that pawns' ability to move?

if you use rook stones on your own pawns, the pawns you used it on can no longer promote

Uh... what happened to Knight Armor?

Okay. So you can turn every one of your pawns into rooks or bishops. Tricky.

Worth noting that if a pawn's move set is replaced by that of a rook, it can no longer capture diagonally.
So....

The White King(?) that is closest to the southernmost black pawn moves diagonally as such to be adjacent to it.

Can't Sl4cker use Bishop Robes on the pawn to make it do that, as a free action no less? You're technically not moving into check, but it might be dangerous.

... and all of a sudden he just got a lot more flexible than I previously thought.

Also, you should totally sign up, after this match we only have one person on the waitlist.

 Because of Fallacies abilities (including Doppelgänger), he can enter checks without having to move, and must be captured for Sl4cker to win.
