SPG 9.0 Annan chess

Einstein chess: http://www.janko.at/Retros/Glossary/Einstein.htm
Annan chess: Units move normally except when they are standing one
square directly in front of another unit of the same colour, when they
move with the power of the rear unit. In the starting position, all
pawns (black & white) move with the power of the piece behind them, e.g.
1. Pc2xh7 (as bishop)
