It looks very interesting. But since i haven't tried it i can't rate
it.Just a silly question: in the Chameleon animation the example states
that the Chameleon captures the enemy Withdrawer (at c1) by moving away
from it.

But how can that be possible? since 'The Withdrawer moves passively as
an
Orthodox Queen', and a long-leaper in c3 is blocking the way to an
orthodox queen(since queens cannot leap). Does this mean that the
chameleon can mimic two pieces at the same time?
