'S - Squire: Moves one or two squares in any direction. The S may jump over other pieces.' This piece can be found in Eric V. Greenwood's Rennchess (1980) and Jean Louis Cazaux's Chess (Variant) Graphics (2002).

The name 'Squire' has also been used for a piece that moves like a Queen for one or two squares, but cannot jump.
