The queen’s gambit. Once per game, the queen, who had been disguised as a pawn up until then, reveals her true self. A queen and a pawn may swap places.

This also means it’s possible to get a pawn to the opponent’s home row by turn 4, thus gaining a second queen.

I like this a lot. The Queen could even start off the board and replace the pawn.

Only allowed once per game and the pawn must be chosen ahead of time. Enforced by the honor system.
