Check out Emperor Raumschach.

It is a variant of mine which attempts to answer several of the obstacles of Raumschach.

The Emperor piece guarantees a checkmate position. While the Herald(Unicorn+Knight or Unicorn+Hippogriff or Unicorn+Wyvern) frees up the simple Unicorn from its triagonal pattern.

There's a Zillions implementation for those who wish to evaluate it themselves.
