In LOCKING CHESS it is still difficult to estimate the real power of the pieces because they all gained the ability to overlay, and this factor multiplies the strategic and tactical possibilities, accelerating the dynamics of chess unpredictably. However, when the pieces are in EQUAL overlay, they are like a single piece on the same square and both can be captured in a single move!

An approximate value would be: PAWN: 1.5 points BISHOP: 4 points KNIGHT: 5 points ROOK: 6 points QUEEN: 10 points KING: value to be calculated
