I was reading the piece descriptions for Chu Shogi and noticed a couple of
things that are not as how I learned to play the game a couple of weeks
ago. It's probably just a typing mistake, but I want to make sure as I
might be playing it incorrectly.

The movement description for the Silver General in Chu Shogi is
incorrect.
The Silver General may move one square diagonally in any direction or one
square straight ahead. The description given has it moving like a Bishop
and the promoted piece isn't what a Silver General promotes to as it
promotes to a Vertical Mover. The Copper General promotes to a Side Mover
and not a Vertical Mover. The second column seems to have the promoted
piece descriptions line up correctly. The description I'm talking about
are in the first comlumn talking about the unpromoted piece.

This is in the Latin part of the descriptions.
