DARK ELVES, version 2:

  • Scout = Berolina Pawn: diagonal move, vertical capture = fmFfcWifnmF
  • Minotaur: Bishop (move) + Rook (capture) = mBcR
  • Manticore: Knight (move) + King (capture) = mNcK
  • Medusa: Rook (move) + Bishop (capture) = mRcB
  • Hydra = Centaur: Knight + King = NK

I think about updating Heroes also:

  • Paladin (Human Hero): King (no changes)
  • Druid (Elvish Hero): King (move) + Bishop (capture)
  • Shaman (Orcish Hero): King (move) + Rook (capture)
  • Warlock (Dark Elvish Hero): King (move) + Knight (capture)

 

All this needs to be tested. Is it possible to add special rules for the royal peace in Fairy Max?
