Re: Melek - That's the translation I was given.

Re: Emir, et al - Well, Scheherazade was where I borrowed those pieces from.

Re: Snake - Thanks for the info. I'll update that.

Re: Satrap - You're partially right; it's not an oversight, but a matter of confusion. As you say, it's next to nothing to switch their names.

Re: Spear - I need to update the move in this case. I meant it to be the "Pawnrider" you describe. I don't know why I did it the way it now appears. (Brain glitch, no doubt.)

Re: The word pawn - I'll also update that sentence to "its (eventual) origin."

Again, thanks for all the great notes!
