Is the knight component of the empress western‐ or chinese‐style?

Does the river have any effect other than enhancing pawns upon crossing?

Hi Bn Em,

Thank you for your interest in the game.

The knight component of the Empress moves in the Western style. I've updated the game's description to make this information more explicit, thanks to your question.

Regarding the river, its sole effect is indeed the enhancement of pawns upon crossing.
