For an extend Knight on a 12 x 12 board, I favor the <a href=../piececlopedia.dir/bison.html>Bison</a>, which is a Knight plus a <a href=../piececlopedia.dir/zebra.html>Zebra</a> (or in other words, a (1,2) leaper plus a (2,3) leaper). The nice thing about a Bison is while increasing it's range and power, it retains the Knight's color-changing attribute, unlike the <a href=../piececlopedia.dir/gnus.html>Gnu</a>.
