Every time i get attack i feel like the attack would be better with one more piece. Like a piece you could put on the board when you want to. Is there any good arguments for this topic?

No it doesn't. A chess game is simple yet incredibly deep, why make the game more complex?

I know exactly the feeling. Quite often when I am playing someone who is a lot better than me, I will end up in a situation where if I could put one more piece on the board (usually a queen) it would be a big help. I've concluded this comes from not being very good at chess.

I think you might like Shogi. Captured pieces can be dropped on the board on one's own side in the way you describe.

Look up for Capablanca chess, has some new pieces added and it is on a 10x10 board, one of the pieces is a knight combined with a rook.

Capablanca Chess (or Capablanca's Chess) is a chess variant invented in the 1920s by former World Chess Champion José Raúl Capablanca. It incorporates two new pieces and is played on a 10×8 board. Capablanca proposed the variant while World Champion, and not as a "sour grapes" rationalization after losing his title as some critics have asserted.[1] He believed that chess would be played out in a few decades (meaning games between grandmasters would always end in draws). This threat of "draw death" for chess was his main motivation for creating a more complex and richer version of the game.

The new pieces have properties that enrich the game. For example, the archbishop by itself can checkmate a lone king (king in a corner, archbishop placed diagonally with one square in between).

If you successfully promote a pawn that's like gaining an extra piece.

Capablanca chess sounds incredible! A real shame the game didn't gain traction.

Did I unknowingly switch the language in my settings or did this thread take a sudden turn which I can't comprehend?

Ahora todo tiene sentido. Google me ayudo.

No he leido ese libro y no creo leerlo, tengo cosas mas importantes que leer como la Teoria de la Evolucion. 

Seguire siendo ignorante en cuanto a literatura colombiana.
