In reply to Boris Badenov (is this his real name or a self-deprecating
pun?), the Moose moves like a Grasshopper
(http://www.chessvariants.com/piececlopedia.dir/grasshopper.html) but
turns through 45º during the hop. A Squirrel and Moose would indeed be an
interesting combination of a strong short-range piece and a restricted
long-range one.
