206. Tiger. I've been waiting to post this one until I could come up with (or find, or remember) a good, unique name for its rotary counterpart. I'm giving in now, thinking that surely someone can help me out with that (and then I can hopefully post that piece Monday).

The Tiger makes a (2,3) leap like a Zebra, and from the landing point may slide outward diagonally like a Bishop. ([Z?B])

The counterpart, of course, would be [Z?R]. I'm sure it's appeared somewhere by now.

Not that it really matters much, but the angled stripes on this piece were especially fun to do.
