MASTERS: A master can move 1 or 2 cells in any direction, orthogonally or diagonally forward and backwards. Also, it can capture in the same way of pawns (jumping over an adjacent friendly piece and falling on an immediately adjacent enemy piece) but in any of 8 directions.

HEROOJ: When a pawn reaches the far rank of the board is promoted to "heroo". It can move sideways and backwards (orthogonally and diagonally), but NOT FORWARD. It captures like pawns.
