Interesting variant with innovative promotion rules.
The rules are inclomplete with respect to double check and pincers on both Kings, it should be specified what happens than. Technically, the fake King is in check but not necessarily checkmated in such a situation.
The rare case of double checkmate should also have a special mention in the rules: Is this the end of the game with a win for the checkmating party, or will the game continue with the fake King demoted to a pawn and the checkmating piece being removed?
