The pieces change on ranks 3, 5 and 7 according to the default

I don't understand what the ‘default’ is here. Nor is it clear that that part of the sentence is necessary or useful. Other than that I see no major issues here

Though incidentally, I don't fully understand some of the inconsistencies in the piece descriptions across your pages; some are described fully before the diagram whereas some defer it for afterwards; Wazir and Ferz as components apparently don't require explicit description, but (k)nightrider (e.g. in R‐Chess where it doesn't appear alone) does; changing colour is somehow special for the dragon horse but not for the cardinal or the TCB rook… none of which I find severe enough to block publication, but it'd make more sense 'imo for these things to be brought in line one way or the other
