It seems to me that if you allow the long-leaper to go all the way to x0, he would want to do this because a piece on a corner square is immune to capture from a long-leaper (or a chameleon in this case.) So, if you want to avoid pieces hiding in the corner, I would disallow the extended move to x0. This seems to go along with the purpose of the ring-board - keeping pieces from using edges to provent capture.
