Narc, here is how I see the consequences of your plan:
1. I think your plan puts a bigger bullseye on the knights.
2. As a result, it begins to force the hand of the rooks on their protection orders.
3. Which in turn allows the wolves to go elsewhere if they have a knight (or two) on one side of the board.

Maybe the other two already happen on the first turn or two. But after that the knights will have had the ability to make their move across the board if they are interested in doing so. I'm generally against restricting the options of the knights ... if you take them out of the mix then I'm fine with the remainder of your plan.

I would also be amiable to a proposal suggesting that both sides agree not to deliberately take out a knight with a "chess move".
