One more trial of new pieces for a future Interactive Diagram on this game, filling out the Leader group:

  • Marquis
  • Priest
  • Abbot

(I did the High Priest earlier, the Minister is already in the main collection, and the Duke basically is the Castellan.)

I probably will rework a couple of the ones I've already posted (the Walrus for sure, to fix the outline; the Turtle and Dolphin if I can figure out how to do better), and a couple that I'm ambivalent about using the main set for (like the Jackal), but otherwise I think this is the end of these.

(There also are a few, such as the Zebrarider, that I wish were part of the main collection, and are simple enough to make, but I'm not sure what to do about them.)
