Queens more points?

Hi, I was just thinking that if bishops worth 5 points, so Queen maybe  11.

In two player chess:

-Queen = Tower + bishop + 1 = 5 +3 + 1 = 9                

In four player chess:

-Queen = Tower + bishop + 1 = 5 + 5 + 1 = 11

What do you think?

Seems logical. But keep in mind that the more it deviates from classical chess, the wackier the game will look to newcomers. Besides that, 11 is such an ugly number! happy.png

I think queens are rook + KNIGHT + pawn happy.png

 

The additional value for a bishop is because long range matters a lot more in this variant.

And the queen also can move diagonally long range just like a bishop can.

queens should be 12 or 13
