Enter Your Reply The Comment You're Replying To George Duke wrote on Mon, Sep 20, 2004 08:16 PM UTC:Commented lately under Sissa, Rose and Jetan (Larry Smith on Burroughs')are chess pieces with two or more (multiple) paths per square destination. No one has previously grouped the type together just as logically as say 'Leapers'. Jetan's five such piece-types originate by 1920s. Renaissance Chess' Duke and Cavalier arise in 1980. Falcon from Falcon Chess is documented from December 1992 and patent applied for 1996. Sissa, the half-Rook half-Bishop, hails from 1998, about the time Betza experiments with Rose and Half-Rose. In addition to Warrior and Padwar, as Paulowich points out the simplest multiple-path chess pieces, Jetan has Thoat, Dwar and Chieftain also meeting criteria fitting the bill. Thoat moves one straight, one diagonal, either order and any direction. Besides its TWO-WAY Wazir squares, of interest non-jumping Thoat goes to 'Knight' squares two different ways, following the move definition. With the five Jetan chess pieces--Dwar and Chieftain still to be explicated--added to the six previous above, eleven(11) multiple-route movers so far.
