件名: Why Gothic Inventor rates the Archbishop so low?

In the July 2000 article on the value of the Gothic pieces;you rated the Archbishop as being less than 1 pawn lower than the Queen. Why then on Gothicchess.com do you only rate it as slightly more powerful than a Rook. Of all the Pieces only The Archbishop has the ability to create an unassisted checkmate;did you in your figuring take this into account. Also with the possibility of an Archbishop Vortex;I really believe a constant should have been introduced to take this into account. I still prefer your origanal accessment of its value. This is why I wondered about this. Could you offer a simple explaination to my question;as I believe it would help my game?

I do not see why not being able to Fiachetto is all that bad;otherwise I totally agree with Gothic Inventor. Capablanca chess is certainly flawed;whereas Gothic Chess is a much more balanced and preferable setup. It is the best of the 8x10 square setups;I prefer it to regular chess,which is far too drawish. However,I also like Janus Chess;even though the setup is strange.
