hi andy. actually, it was your american chess that brought my attention to
the squirrel, i had not noticed it before then ... and i love it :)
pretty strong piece though, strong as rook easily. It could only be in sky
as a replacement for rook or alternate option to promote to (fiveleaper ->
rook or squirrel)
Sky is a game for wacked out leapers that normally don't see many games. 
I had to make 'no pawns' for this game to work, and promotion rule.
anyway, if i do another variant, for 'root 65 and 85' leapers, knight
and squirrel could sneak in i guess.
now if someone asks me 'what about the alfil' .. :))
