Cheers for the input.

Bob inquired:

"What is the motivation for the additional rules? Does it add to the strategic richness or make the game more exciting or some other reason?"

I'm doubtful that any additional rules would 'add to the richness' of what appears to be a very complex variation in its own right!

You may get plenty of practice and learn something new about all facets of the game; especially priming.

Here's an idea I've been exploring

I played this position out to get a feel for it. My first objective was to release all spares from the acept. Ideas about priming and setting up key points evolved throughout. I played 88 moves in total. XG+ had 227 pips of timing with a 1-3 backgame.
