How many points do you think each piece is worth compared to the standard rating system of a Pawn being a "1" and Rook 5 and Queen 9 etc?
Assassin
Can move one space diagonally or exactly two spaces orthogonally, thus always staying on the same color. He can take a FREE MOVE after capturing any piece, which is unique to this piece.
Bard
Can move one space orthogonally or jump two spaces diagonally.
Gryphon
Can move 2 or 3 spaces diagonally or JUMP (2,3) or (3,2) in any of eight directions. Thus it can attack up to sixteen squares simultaneously.
Which of these pieces, if any, would you like to see in a real game of Chess?

Assassin and Ranger
Move is the same, but he can now place TRAPS on the Board to prevent enemy pieces from moving onto those spaces. The Ranger can do this too now.
Bard: Big Change
It now moves like the King, but can teleport off the sides of the Board and onto the opposite side of the Board. It can also teleport back to YOUR king Row from anywhere on the Board.

Gyro: Changed
Now moves as a basic Bishop plus a (0,1) or (1,0) mover. This tiny tweak makes it more than twice as powerful as the basic Bishop.
