I think I managed to fix the checkmating with the Wyvern, by having the EGT generator recognize the j modifier on sliding moves as ski-sliding, and generate the EGT accordingly. (So far this only works in the per-piece applet to which the Piececlopaedia links; I did not make similar modifications in the article, as it is currently not possible to specify ski-slides in the piece-design pane.)

The technique for checkmating with a pure Ski-Rook is also interesting!
