I thought that in the context of Chess pieces, 'bifurcator' was reserved for pieces whose path split in reaction to encountering an obstcle (occupied square) rather than spontanously after a pre-determined distance. For instance, I would not call the Xiangqi Horse (Mao) a bifurcator. Edit Form You may not post a new comment, because ItemID Piece-types does not match any item.
