Yes, a Cannon in Cylindrical XQ can indeed capture a piece by hopping the same piece first and wrapping round, as long as there is no third piece on the rank. Likewise a Cannon in Billiards XQ can capture a piece by hopping the same piece and bouncing off the edge of the board.
	Another feature of Cylindrical XQ is the unbinding of Elephants.
