Position created by @RALRAL3333

Position description: In this custom position, the board is set up with an interesting combination of pieces, but most notably, each side has 2 queens! These queens are fairly centralized on the board, yet the position was set up so that it is difficult to trade queens right away. Compared to standard chess, each side also starts with only 1 bishop and only 1 rook, which should help to offset the increased material that having an extra queen has. You also need to decide what to do wth your king which could become vulnerable, and how you will develop your pieces, protect your pawns, and launch an attack!
