If you like super-strong pieces (but my guess is that it would make the
game too tactical, without quiet positions, almost reversi-like), I think
the following array would be more logical:

C H A M K A H C

where M=Amazon and H=Nightrider. Pieces are the same as orthodox Chess,
but enhanced by a Knight move. In the Knight this enhancement is added
'serially', i.e. it becomes a Nightrider.

Only the poor King has no enhancement. You could replace it by a Centaur,
but this might make checkmating it too difficult.
