Thanks, Alfred. I have taken the freedom to translate
Immobilizer into 'Ruhigsteller' for my project on
germanising ABChess, but this is not yet fixed.

Hi Joerg,

I assume in German 'official' names for Ultima pieces does not exist.
Each author tries to find the best adaption.  The German version of
Zillions used names that differ from my inventions. I wrote a small
article for the magazin 'Computer-Schach und Spiele'. Please look to
'http://www-user.tu-chemnitz.de/~apf/Gnaax/CV/Ultima/ultima2.html'
for the content.

Friendly greetings,
Alfred Pfeiffer

If I remember right, a german description of Ultima
was once published in Spektrum der Wissenschaft (sister
journal of Scientific American). Since I cannot retrieve
the reference quickly here is my question: What are the
names of the Ultima pieces in german?
