An experiment might be to switch all the Kts with the Champions AND switch all the Wizards with the Archbishops, in the setup - play testing could proceed from there, if anyone thinks this may be a good idea to try.

One of the deliberate features of the setup is that every piece except the Vaos has an empty space it can move to behind the Pawn line. If you made these changes to the setup, the Knights, Champions, and Archbishops would no longer have any empty spaces they could move to behind the Pawn line.
