The only thing I would recommend changing on the latest board would be to extend all the arrows to the centers of the squares. On squares with both long and short arrows, the long ones are more prominent, and this may make it easier to miss the short ones.

I like the new Clodhopper and Fuddy-Duddy pieces in the Smess-style set. I preferred the name Dumbo, though, as it seemed so perfect for a piece based on the elephant. Fuddy-Duddy makes some sense too, but I've known ministers who are anything but dull, conservative, and unimaginative.
