The new combined piece (Biawn) can now move as a Bishop or a Pawn, Or it can split back by moving either piece away individually. Do you love Promoting the Pawn to a Queen? Well fast track your Pawn to the other side of the board using a Rook or Bishop and WHAM you have an EXTRA QUEEN on the board. But look out if you lose a Combined piece you lose two standard pieces BANG! Combine a Queen and a Knight (Quight) for a RUTHLESS piece - a TRUE Queen on her stallion doing battle on the board, at anytime she can hop off back onto the board for hand to Queen combat.
