I have a question about this position. If the piece on f5 were a Long Leaper, it could capture the Long Leaper on c2, and it would capture the Withdrawer on e4 along the way. But since the piece is a Chameleon, can it still move to b1 to capture the Long Leaper on c2? If nothing were on e4, it would be free to. Since it can't capture the Withdrawer by leaping over it, does that block it from being able to capture the Long Leaper? Or could it leap over the Withdrawer without capturing it and capture the Long Leaper on c2?
