About "perpendicular": Oops! I've updated the description now.

About the word "Chess" in the title: I lean towards keeping it. After all, this variant has stepping, riding, knight's leaps, chess style capture, promotion on the last rank, and a same-size checkered board. Also, the way the Chicken's rider ability appears at the edges, while being more like a pawn in the middle of the board, I think reminds of the typical situation in Chess.

Thank you for the icons!
