Having found out about the use of the name Pasha I have been considering names that might be used for similar pieces in different mixtures of radial directions. Names that come to mind of which I am unaware of any current use include Effendi, Emir, Mogul, Sheikh, and Sultan (I have used Sultan's pieces here but not a Sultan itself). The possibility of a Sheikh makes updating the Honeycomb Chess page, which still mentions a usage that I have abandoned, all the more urgent. I am sending another update of this page reflecting further changes to the Man and Beast series, and would be grateful if an editor could look for and post the update.
