Thanks Charles!

I have to admit I like the 'Ajax Rider' concept you coined together!

I will experiment with these riders later, especially the Ajax Rider Rook.

Thanks also for the link on Bolyar Chess!

Funnily enough, I am experimenting an Ajax Citadels variant with Carlos Cetina, and lately (after Omega chess) I seem to find Citadel variants all over the place...

I find interesting the Bolyar concept of a higher promotion at the Citadel (to Generals) and may explore this concept.

Ajax Rider Rook (represented below by a Boylar Queen): It moves & captures like a Rook, and it may also play as a non-capturing Bishop.
