ah 'Bishop's Dog' thanks!!
yes name comes from the shogi piece 'Lion Dog' which moves 1 to 3 squares
on the queen lines. I've been coding a lot of shogi pieces lately and
there isn't a piece that moves like this, which is pretty amazing because
there are heaps of short range sliders in shogi variants.
