Both sides have their 3rd file pawns at the start.
If a pawn is protected by a friendly piece, i.e. That piece could eat the pawn if it had been a hostile pawn, then the pawn gains the abilities of that piece. (until either piece moves away).
The winner is the person who finishes the opponent's pawns first. (checks still count ie king still has to be protected).
Kings CAN face each other.
A friendly piece can "capture" a pawn and give it its abilities until the pawn is down, or another friendly piece "captures" it back, killing the already existing piece.
For example, if a Knight "captures" a pawn, then the pawn can move like a knight, (as well as a pawn), but a friendly rook can displace the knight and the pawn will become a rook-pawn, and the knight will be taken off the board.
For conveniences sake the "capture"s shall now be replaced by a better word. Say.... parasite. (:
A pawn with a parasite can still function like a "normal" pawn with its newfound abilities.
I present an example of how a game might start: (and be over within 5 turns or so)
