Hilarious idea, very nice.

A dumb thing I found - If you move the knight's pawn, it's just barely possible to, over the course of many moves, slip your rook diagonally through to that pawn's former space.

I think the number of moves approaches infinity as the diameter approaches sqrt(2)/2, as the current diameter is 0.7 squares so that rooks can escape diagonally. Could be interesting to look into.
