I had the wrong ones capitalized before; this is that section now in Post-Move 2:

if == h #mover:
  set p path #ori #desti;
  set k count #p;
  do while #k:
    dec k;
    set sqr elem #k #p;
    set v space #sqr;
    if isupper #v:
      break;
    endif;
    empty #sqr;
    if == K #v:
      set victim K;
    elsif == Q #v;
      set vic2 Q;
    endif;
  loop;
endif;

In Post-Move 1, the h at the top is capitalized, and the K and Q at the bottom are not.

If that's correct, then all that's really left (except for the text part, which I'm pretty sure I have a handle on) is getting the four piece graphics I made for this game (for Berserker, Bowman, Soldier, and Spy) to appear in the GCP as they do in the ID. For that, unless I'm misunderstanding something, I can just upload the existing graphics for the Alfaerie set that are used in this to /membergraphics/MSvanguardchess/ (where the new ones are already located) and change setsystem dir "/graphics.dir/alfaeriePNG/" to look there.
