What a fine job you have done Mr. Muller and thanks again. I could not wait
so downloaded your zip file and ran part of a game.

The positions of the Lieutenants (elephant model) and the Colonels
(rook-like model) need to be swapped. All else looks fine.

I look forward to digging into this tomorrow.

btw - I was looking at fairy-chess piece notation at:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fairy_chess_piece. I was preparing to look at
Fairy-Max and wanted to have some set of notation in mind before I began. I
suspect your notation is different. For the 3 Spartan Chess pieces not
already documented on this page I came of with this which I think is
correct but perhaps not relevant at this point:

• Colonel: 	1+, ~2+
• Lieutenant:	1X, ~2X
• Hoplite:	o1X>, c1>, io~2X>
