mating is not necessarily more difficult but endgame strategies are
dramatically impacted. What I think will happen is a sequence of checks 
that manuavers the general in to a square such that a final fork of the
pegasus and the general gives mate. To win a player must somehow 
construct the sequence, and not to lose by preventing them. Also it 
definitely impacts promotion choice and skew it toward pegasus for 
defense, or toward wizard/champion (maybe) for offence
