Looking to the maorider, I remembered 3 pieces that I've devised but
discarded.

The mao moves WF, and the maorider moves n(WF), with that whe can think of
moa and moo riders.

The pieces I devised reach the same squares that the maorider, but moves
n(W)n(F), with the same kindred pieces.

Are those pieces new?

With litle math people can do the same for camels and etc.

Hugs!

Besides the one above summarizing Betza, Gilman frequently names many Riders near the end of a Man & Beasts xx, such as the M&B03 about Ungulates with up to 50 Riders there named.

Moorider can be Maorider+Moarider or what is called 'multi-path',
correct? Multi-path is the father of planar, and grandfather of
rider/slider. Leaper/stepper is the father of multi-path, descending as
movement becomes more restricted...
