Edgehoppers

The Edgehog, invented by John Driver, is a Queen that can move only to or from the edge cells of the board. The 'or' can be inclusive (I-type) where moves from edge to edge are permitted, or exclusive (E-type) where they are prohibited. Applied to Grasshoppers the same principle produces Edgehoppers.
