Most of the following are also metaphor. Euchess is prosthesis. Chessence
is proparalepsis. ''To Betza'' or ''to Gilman'' is an anthimeria
well-understood. Pillars of Medusa is antiptosis. Duniho's Game Courier
''Kibbitz'' epenthesis. The last sentence is scesis onamaton, omitting
the only verb. Flee! is an asterismos. Chess programmers need critically
to distinguish between paradiastole (disjunction) and polysyndeton
(conjunction).
