Champions and Wizards were added to the GRAND CHESS setup in TenCubed Chess. WARNING: I recently added some comments to the Rules section of my 12x12 variant Rose Chess XII concerning forced mates by King and one piece against a lone King. The Champion can force mate on a 10x10 board, but often fails on a 12x12 board.
P=100, N=300, B=375, Wizard=400, Champion=450, R=600, A=850, M=950, Q=1100 are my best guesses for piece values in endgames on a 12x12 board. See the bottom of my ROSE CHESS XII page for some brief notes on theory. Interesting fact: my OMEGA CHESS certificate of ownership has notes on piece values (on a board with 104 squares) by Daniel Macdonald: Bishop=400 and Champion=400 are the only values that differ from mine. I usually value a Cannon equal to 70 percent of a Rook at the start of the game, lowering this estimate after each exchange to reach 50 percent by the early endgame. I assume that the Vao has the same numerical relationship to the Bishop.
