Camel. An elongated Knight making a (3, 1) leap.[All Comments] [Add Comment or Rating]

Maybe the Camel only becomes a little effective on the 10x10board?
On that board I recall we have for example Omega chess which uses the
Camel move joined with the Ferz which make it a more effective piece.

But maybe, on that board, the Camel by itself can prove valuable for
instance in the opening by forking, even if that means loose the piece on
an very early stage of the game?
