The Heavy Brigade. Naming of leaping pieces.[All Comments] [Add Comment or Rating]

After further thought I have thought of an idea for naming an n:m-n leaper for all n from 0 to m inclusive, where the name exists for n between 0 and m exclusive: prefix with End- meaning the end of the formula's range. It is inspired by my suggestion of Gamewarden for Zebra+Giraffe, making Zebra+Giraffe+Quibbler for m=5 an ENDGAMEWARDEN! This would make Knight+Trebuchet ENDKNIGHT for m=3 and Caribou(Camel+Elephant)+Cobbler ENDCARIBOU for m=4.
