I let Zillions play four games with Alpacas against Guanacos and the
Guanacos won by 3½-½. Just as expected if the Guanaco is worth around 3. 
But it's to few games. However, it could be a program problem. Maybe
Zillions is intelligent enough to handle this piece well. In fact, Zillions
overestimates it somewhat. So I had to tweak it to a lower value, to
somewhat lower than a bishop. Zillions overestimates movability without
capture-capability.
