Cromwell Chess (or is that Charles Chess?)

Cromwell (or Charles) chess is a history-themed chess variant based on the English Civil War, thus the name Charles (or Cromwell) chess. It is not intended as an exact representation, but to serve as a simulation of Civil War. It has elements of both FIDE chess and Rifle Chess, as in there are both melee and rifle options.

The board

Cromcharles Chess is played on a standard 8 by 8 board, and all notation is kept the same. The arrangement is as follows: second rank of each player: PPPPPPPP, first rank of each player: WH(B/P)(R/Py)C(B/P)HW.
