King: Moves 1 square in any direction that isn't a checkmate, usually the main piece so don't let your opponent trap/capture it

Queen: Moves an infinite amount of squares horizontally, vertically and diagonally

1-Point Queen: It's just a queen worth a single point if the "Game of Points" rule is on

Rook: Moves an infinite amount of squares horizontally and vertically. In the rules, it can be reskinned to a Chariot or a Sailboat

Bishop: Moves an infinite amount of squares diagonally.

Knight: Jumps in a 2x1 pattern, don't really know how to properly describe it.

Pawn: Can move 2 squares forwards for it's first move and afterwards only 1 square. Captures 1 square diagonally. Usually can promote to a Knight, Bishop, Rook and Queen (promotion can be changed in the variants though)

Amazon: Acts like a combination of a Queen and Knight (this thing is a freak of nature since a queen is also a combination)

Chancellor: Combination of a Rook and Knight. Can be reskinned to a Seirawan Elephant in the rules

Archbishop: Combination of Bishop and Knight. Can be reskinned into a Hawk

Wildebeest: Acts like a combination of a Knight and a Camel (which is next up)

Camel: A 3-1 elongated Knight. (Also can only be on the same colored square like a bishop)

Grasshopper: Moves like a Queen, but it jumps over the first piece in its way and lands right behind it.

Ferz: Moves and captures 1 square diagonally.

Wazir: Moves and captures 1 square horizontally and vertically.

Alfil: Jumps 2 squares diagonally. Can be reskinned into an Elephant.

Dabbaba: Jumps 2 squares horizontally and vertically.

Alibaba: Combination of the Alfil and the Dabbaba.

Xiangqi Horse: Moves like a Knight, however if there's a piece 1 square away horizontally or vertically, it cannot jump in that direction.

Dragon Bishop: Combination of the Xiangqi Horse and, you guessed it, the Bishop.

The riders (Knight-rider, Camel-rider, Alfil-rider, Dabbaba-rider, Alibaba-rider)cjust act like the original pieces but their moves are infinite

Berolina: Reverse pawn, moves diagonally and captures forwards.

Soldier: Pawn that moves and captures forwards.

Stone General: Pawn that moves and captures diagonally. (Kinda like a checkers piece)

Sergeant: Pawn that moves and captures in any direction forwards.

EXTRAS

Brick: it's just a wall that you can't go on idfk what else to put

Transparent Brick: it's a brick that you can't see and gets rid of the whole square

Ducky: It's a brick but with a twist: everytime you or your opponent make a move you can choose a place to put it and block eachothers moves

Checker: A reskin for every single piece. You can only get it by applying the "checky chess" rule to a variant. Doesn't affect the movement of any pieces
