Here is a possible solution for balancing pawns on a board larger than 8
rows.  This is particularly useful on odd rows.  Please comment.  How
about allowing pawns the ability to capture one space in front of them,
instead of just diagonal?  When I have experimented with chess on an 8x9
board, I found this solution worked well to balance the board. 

Please comment. I will write it up as a piece if the feedback is favorable.
