On a 3d board, would this piece also be able to make a 5:4:3 leap? After all, the length of that is quite obviously root 50 as well. Even with that leap the piece would of course still be colourbound, and the board would need one dimension of at least 8 and another of at least 6 to give the piece all its moves.
