The intent of the chess variants I posted is to design playable variations, where the pieces are used. It would be interesting to know which ones generate more exiting (including with respect to opening developments) or shorter games.

Here is yet another one: Enhanced 8x8 Orthodox chess:
  G C A Q K A C G
i.e., gotten form Orthodox chess by the piece replacements R -> G, N -> C, B -> A. So there are no minor pieces here.
