This is not a game or a set of games. This is merely a tool for the analysis of a set of games that uses the ZOG program. Specifically, the 48 select CRC variants recognized by Samuel Trenholme and Derek Nalls.
Note that all of the pieces of the black player are absent, the pawns of the white player are absent and none of the pieces present can move.
The rational foundation of this model resides within the generally-acknowledged significance of pawn backups by power pieces and the inter-related ability of backed-up pawns to protect the power pieces behind them- both with a strength proportional to their numbers.
Well-founded refinements to this model are included that involve the total number, resourceful, balanced and prioritized distribution of pawn backups- esp. with respect to the composite pieces (i.e., queen, chancellor, archbishop) and supremely with respect to the king.
I welcome thoughtful, constructive correspondence from anyone.
Supreme thanks to the principal architects of the Zillions program for making all dreams possible.
