I uploaded a bugfix to Castalia today. I really don't know if simultaneous repelling and attraction is that useful. But it's fun. Also the Naiad is capable of this now. Interestingly, a piece that did not need enhancement is the Alseid (uploaded a slightly improved version today). Due to the fact that it kidnaps from behind a screen it, for some reason, becomes much more dangerous. The Echidna has a similar property of repelling behind a screen. These two pieces seem powerful enough as they are. It has become an obsession with me, this piece invention business, and I must now try to forget about this for a while. I think it's the mathematical properties which are so interesting, that is, how certain piece characteristics affect the game as a whole, its tactics and strategy.
