Thema: Progressive Chess

I'm sure I've said this here before: I'm a huge fan of progressive chess, and have had the chance to play some of the world's best. If we were ever to add progressive as a variant here at BK, I'd love to see a Chess960 (fisherrandom) version available--possibly in addition to a variant that begins from the standard chess starting position. It would make it possible for more original analysis.

From the standard starting position, progressive is a great variant for people completely new to it, or to those who are learning the tactics and mating patterns of conventional chess. But specialists in progressive variants would probably appreciate the chance to break new ground from move 1.
