Would anyone like to play a game of Spartan Chess?

I have submitted this chess version to Chess Variants and hope it will soon be posted.
In the meantime you can visit my web site for the rules: SpartanChessOnline.com

Spartan Chess Features:
• A Persian army (white) identical to that of orthodox chess
• A Spartan army led by two Kings
• Spartan pawns (hoplites) that move differently than orthodox pawns
• Spartan pieces that move differently than any found in orthodox chess
• No opening book
• No end game studies
• Asymmetric play and feel
• Can be played with a standard chess set
• Different victory conditions for both sides

So be warned, it is different. We can play via email and I can send a “snapshot” of the board after each of my moves.
I am happly to play as either Black (Spartan) or White (Persian).
