RN28 Coordination makes 1.535115264 x 10^21, approx. 1.5 sextillion CVs, in molecular equivalence approx. 2.5 milligram water medium (JJoyce). Frogs, fishes, worms: hops, flops, squirms. Coordinator captures piece by its move that discovers the captive on the intersection(perpendicular) of rank or file of the Coordinator and its King. More logical is paired same-type's coordinating that way to capture. (a) no effect (b) In addition to normal moves, same-side Knights capture also by mutually coordinating along one's arrival-square orthogonal lines perpendicular to the other Knight's, in the manner of Ultima/Maxima. (b) Upon completion of move Falcons only additionally capture coordinately. (c) Knight and Falcon are able to do so (these all enable capturing 1, 2, or even 3 at once). (d) Bishop, Knight, and Falcons capture mutually coordinating (only same piece-types effecting it). (e) Bishop and Knight only (f) Rooks only capture by mutual coordination. (g) The coordination-capture effect of 28c extends maximally 3 squares both rank and file (h) The capture (Knights) of 28b extends 4 squares at most orthogonally.
