Ah, I see it now -- the last paragraph under Notes.

Thanks! :)

It's not in this game but is mentioned on this page. I included it as a piece that can only be obtained through promotions in my interactive diagram because it just felt right. Also pressing restart will shuffle the pieces since I'm not a fan of the starting position on this page.

Nice! Also logical. It's not in this game, of course (unless I'm missing something); do you have a link to where it is?

It's Jörg Knappen's.

I actually was thinking about the move.

If you're talking about the piece name.

The "worsen" is interesting. Did you come up with it yourself?

There is no SVG image for the Rose, so I used a butterfly. SVG images for nighriderwazir and nightriderferz do exist, but there are no PNG renderings of those.

I will take care of these this weekend.
