They are not obstructed by a piece on the jumped square. G(Giraffe) leap one square diagonally and then three or more orthogonally. It is obstructed by a piece on the jumped square. Gu (Guard) this piece has the same moving ability of the King but without its restrictions concerning check.

Notes

For the best strategic and tactical planning of a game, it is possible to take advantage of following power dependences between pieces:

M > Q > C > A > R = F > Ca > B > U > G > Mo = N > Cm = Gu.
