IIUC, "koma" just means "piece", so I'm not sure whether it's descriptive enough. |
It means piece in Japanese, and it's in a submodule. I don't think there's much opportunity for confusion. |
|
I just realized that the black pawn also needs a text variation selector, since it can also be an emoji. |

Closing until the multi-character symbols situation is resolved. |

Reopening since the multi-character symbols situation has been resolved a while ago. |

Note that Unicode also defines symbols used in chess notation, at least ten of which in Miscellaneous Symbols and Arrows, as of Unicode 17.0.0. |
|
Additionally, Unicode 17.0.0 assigned four new codepoints under Chess Symbols (see the delta chart). |
There's an ungodly number of these symbols, so I'd be surprised if I got everything right.
I mostly followed @MDLC01, though:
.invinstead of.b. I believe they are more common than the other rotated variants.There's also 4 symbols for draughts, but they don't seem like they fit under chess.
