Believe it or not, I've actually worked up a Zillions implementation to
play this game.  It is still in the beta-testing period.  But should be
ready in about a week.

Question: I understand that the Pawn and Squire can make multiple
non-capturing steps(some conditional).   But is the capture move of the
Pawn and Squire a single step?  I've coded for a single step.

I also coded that the pentagon restriction also applies to the Templar's
knight leap.
