Fwiw, I'd thought of making the Hydra piece type even more powerful, by having it move like both a Pegasus and a Hippo, but in the end I preferred to have certain 'blind spots' (6 of them) in a Hydra's sphere of influence. Not only that, but then the Hydra remains as a thematic compound piece, of just two (IMO) 'basic' piece types, as far as its movements go, namely Pegasus and King.
