Thanks. The 10x10 variant features Parton's Gorgona, actually. Both variants have been implemented as Courier presets that check whether a piece is paralyzed (this is necessary to avoid confusion).

I mentioned the Pyrrhus on two hardliner Fide-chess forums, and in both occasions it received some appraisal. This is very uncommon, I tell you. The other variant which evoked slight interest among hardliners was my Castle Chess.
