BTW, what I said below about the 'Fool' applied to the version that only mimics the move of the last-played non-Fool. It did not have any paralyszing effects. We also played Superchess with pieces that did that. The total immobilizer (called 'Mage' there) is perceived as too powerful, but a piece that only inhibits capture of its enemy neighbors, and is not too mobile and does not capture by itsef (the 'Femme Fatale') was appreciated a lot. But such 'third party interaction' is quite non-Chesslike.
