Yes, Supremo Superchess and my own Optima (withdrawn) and Nova Chess (still in private development), which called the piece a Lioness, all predate the 2006 date given for the 'invention' of the Brigadier. I no intention of using the piece in any future version of Nova Chess, though. I decided that it lacked clarity and had a tendency to make openings unstable.
