to Nasmichael:

That choice could be relevant not only for Gothic Chess alone but for the whole family of Capablanca extended piece set related variants.

Indeed it seems neither being simple nor to be skipped finding appropriate icons DISTINCT to existing and RELATED to the GAITS of the represented pieces. The solution Smirf provides for that problem thus avoids the usage of horse heads or bishop hats. And for newcomers additionally to those pictures it might be helpful also to use new and better names, where some already have been introduced here:

A=ARCHANGEL (ger. E=Erzengel, protecting the paradise with swords) instead of Archbishop or Janus
C=CENTAUR (ger. Z=Zentaur, because of its double nature, horse part below) instead of Chancellor
