- Create new Combined pieces by moving any piece, according to it's abilities, onto the square of another piece of the same colour.
- A Combined piece can move as either of it's joined pieces.
- Combined pieces can be split by moving either of it's joined pieces away individually.
- Promotions - If a Combined piece containing a pawn makes it to the other side of the board the Combined piece is promoted to a Queen.
