Korean Pao,from Korean Chess, moves by jumping another piece horizontally or vertically. The jump can be performed over any distance provided that there is exactly one piece anywhere between the original position and the target. In order to capture a piece, there must be exactly one piece (friendly or otherwise) between the Korean Pao and the piece to be captured.

Thanks for remark.


 Lion is borrowed from Chu Shogi. But only the power of Igui (stationary feeding) is retained. So the Stone standing on the same file or
rank with only Lion could not move to any empty square.
