I am trying to make something like Allegiance, but with an imbalance, but I cannot get the "feel" of allegiance quite right. any advice?
There are too few pieces.
The 6-check setup may seem unnecessary or too much(should be 2-4 check), depending on how you want to design it, whether it's quick and fun or slow and complex.
there aren't pieces to block the attack on open file, so It's kind of unequal.
the pawns select are not that good, pawns better to be stone generals.promote also should be more common and strong(like rook, even some more strong pieces like queen and amazon.)
and if you really wanna to create an imblance variant, use fairy stockfish to help you.
but It's still a very good variant!

Imbalances are very hard to master, and you shouldn't try it for your first submission. The queen here is overpowered and after trades, it is an easy win for red. This means that yellow has to play very defensive and sharp. The use of overpowered and underpowered pieces here do not match each other, making underpowered pieces useless.
