I have already rated the game so am not repeating a rating here.  In regard
to the issue of two 'same-color square' Bishops I believe that should be
allowed.  The Bario intro states, '... one should be able to play this
game on a normal chessboard with the traditional set of chess pieces.' 
This still seems to allow for same-color Bishops and I think it makes the
game more interesting to allow this.  In regard to rules I would like to
see:
a) captured pieces are not defined until known by deduction
b) Bishops of the same color squares are permitted
