I also like three of these fairy piece chess variants very much, but other than these three fairy piece chess variants, my favourite three of the fairy piece chess variants will be:
1. Metamachy
2. Grand chess
3. Wildebeest chess

 

Metamachy is one of the best chess variants that I have ever played
(1) This chess variant can be enjoyed and played for over 100 moves before resigning or agreeing to a draw
(2) New tactical possibilities that does not exist in orthodox chess due to diversity of pieces and their non-overlapping movements (for example in Trice's chess and Grand chess the chancellor just overlaps the movements of knight and rook and the archbishop just overlaps the movements of knight and bishop)
(3) Due to plenty of (distinct) pieces on the board, each of them with different strength, even if a player is down in material, that player will have more opportunities to exploit opponent's mistakes and win back material than in orthodox chess (when there are too many pieces on the board)
(4) The choice of the pieces are perfect for this chess variant to be enjoyed on a 12×12 board, for all of them to co-ordinate together well to checkmate the opponent's king (unlike Gigachess played on a 14×14 board and Terachess played on a 16×16 board which have too many corporals, many pieces have overlapping movements and few powerful pieces are sufficient enough to checkmate the opponent's king)

Players can read the rules of this chess variant, play with AI online or try out two player online games over hereby: https://jocly.jcfrog.com/joclymatch/gamespanel.php
