Here's Ralph Betza on Bent pieces and further link to his Rhino pieces. Some descriptions become ''multi-path,'' and Betza and Burroughs in Jetan and of course Falcon prompted me to write ''Multi-path Chess pieces.'' The move description does not have to include so much repetition, just using multi-path rider, or multi-path slider, or multi-path hopper, or one specific case of splitting two ways after reaching an obstacle, ''bifurcation rider.''
