Thanks, Antoine.  I like the Serpent-Serpent capture restriction, and think
it's almost certainly an improvement, so I've added this rule.  I must
disagree, however, that the Bishop is not stronger in the 49-square
center.  In this region, the Bishop's average mobility is 8.1 where the
Knight's is 7.5.  When considering the entire board, the Bishop is 5.54,
compaired to 5.71 for the Knight.  The Knight is probably a little bit
better, but not by much.  When I submit this game, I will include my
spreadsheets with the mobility data...

Thanks again!
