Notation

This Piececlopedia uses multiple notations and classification systems. Under this section will be found guides to how each works.

The systems currently in use are:

  • Betza's funny notation
  • Joe's strange notation - an extension of Betza to new pieces/piece types, with iconology
  • Grayhawke's Movement Formula
  • A Locomotive Taxonomy
  • simple verbal description

and
the DHT Classification, based on David Howe's Taxonomy (DHT) and the principal system applied.
