The general appearance and behavior of the Icon Clearinghouse is now basically where I want it. I kind of wish it was possible to put headers in there to separate them by type, but I can understand why that might be impractical.

The only thing stopping me from putting it into the main part of the page is how the editor tends to screw up these things when something is edited in WYSIWIG, and this is a page where I'll be doing that rather frequently (though not as frequently as I was before I put the IC together).

There are a few pieces in the lower part (the "unassigned" ones) that piqued my curiosity, but I couldn't find any further information on them. I'd appreciate anything people can tell me about them -- especially how they're supposed to move! In descending order of my level of curiosity:

  • Moose Pawn
  • Unipawn
  • Shield Archer
  • O Magnifier (and related pieces)
  • Carronade
  • Winged Cardinal
  • Hydra
  • Midbrother
  • Buzy King
