Both the Lightning warmachine and the Oliphant may move 1, 2, 3, or 4 squares. They may slide 1 then leap 2, or leap 2 then slide 1 to go 3 squares in a straight line. They may only capture one piece. They capture by replacement, and must stop on the square of the captured piece, making them short-range riders. I am not yet ready to contemplate double-capturing pieces. Thanks for the questions, I will change the rules page to clarify these questions. I suppose this means I need to do the same for Atlantean Barroom Shatranj also. A zigzag general that can capture twice in one move has to be one of the most powerful short-range pieces ever devised. Thanks for the idea, I think. Not sure how or if it might be used, but what a piece! A very scary piece. You will get credit for giving me the idea if I can find a place to use it.
