Ah, I suspect that John Smith hasn't been precise enough. I had no trouble inferring that a piece defined as moving orthogonally and then diagonally can be blocked along that route, but perhaps it would be better if it was stated explicitly in the text. That would also emphasise the difference from Eurasian, in which the Knight makes unblockable leaps. Combined with repeating piece images beside the descriptions this would be a major improvement to that part of the page.
