I like a Lion-like piece that moves like a man and jumps to any square two
squares away. This piece delivers mate by itself, needing no help from its
own king. It gradually forces the enemy king to an edge square, and mates
from the 'opposition' square or on either of the 2 sqs a knight's move
away from the king adjoining the opposition square.
The same mate from the same 3 squares can be forced by the Amazon.
Mate can be forced by the R+B+Man in exactly the same way as the 2 pieces
above. However, the R+B+Man can deliver mate only from the opposition
square, that is R+B+Man on 'e6' mating a king on 'e8'.
