If you want this game simulation to be as natural as possible, you should not let tthe pieces move in different speeds. A piece doing a 6 square move, travels 6x faster than a piece doing a 1 square move. This effect makes the opponent panic and motivates her/him to play faster It gives one side a psychological edge.

I don't quite follow how this leads to an advantage since it the same for both sides.
