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.
Only allowed once per game and the pawn must be chosen ahead of time. Enforced by the honor system.
I like this a lot. The Queen could even start off the board and replace the pawn.
