Pancake. A piece that moves and captures like a non-royal King or a Nightrider-style cannon.[All Comments] [Add Comment or Rating]

The Queen could be the Upside Down cake.  It moves as a Rook up and then as a circular King until it turns sideways, when it can move as a Rook, wnd then as a circular king in the same direction u til it turns down, when it again moves as a Rook.  It can't leap, nor can it stop during the Circular King movement. Seems interesting.  It's a killer on an open board, but is completely dependent on one square being open.  Why the name and idea?  It's an Up-Side-Down KK.
