after i submitted my comment i read this again: <P> 'which will be a queen that must go at least 2 squares, and is blocked if the adjacent square is occupied.' <P> isn't this redundant, or am i missing something? <P> i don't know of any precedent for naming the hobbled queen. if i remember correctly, in meta-chess, williams-brown calls such pieces 'lame', and refers to the timur's bishop as the lame bishop.
