Relative Strength
I meant to pose this question in my last post but it slipped my mind. What
do you have to say about the relative strength of these two sets of
pieces?
1. Crowned Rook: R + K vs. R + Afil (jumps 2 squares diagonally)
2. Crowned Bishop: B + K vs. B + Dababa (just 2 squares orthogonally)

At first blush I though the jumping piece in each pair would be stronger
but now I am not so sure.
