I found super news for you! Thus, I found on WGM Olympic Champion 2012 N. Pogonina's site (section "Press", publication "Natalia Pogonina Interviewed by Chess Rex", 30.07.2012) the following piece:
Chess Rex: If in chess… all pawns became bishops… then what would be the problem in playing the game? Or who will get the advantage…White or Black? If you are playing such game as white, then what would be your first move and why?
Natalia: This “game” is a mate in 4: 1.Bxf7+ Kxf7 2.Bc4+ (or 2.Bh5+) Ke8 3.Qh5+ Bg6 4.Qxg6# There are a few sub-variations (exercise: find them), but it’s still a mate in 4.
