BrainKing - Profile (Lightbug)

This 10x8 variant published in 1998 features 2 Crowned Knights which combine the King and Knight into one piece. It is placed between the rook and knight. It is set up like Janus Chess and has shorter castling (just 3 moves). Seems like a well balanced game and a nice companion to other 10x8 games that use Rook Knight and Bishop Knight.
