Fwiw, I had calculated a really low value for a single Guard (Man) on a 16x12 Board (1.33 chess pawns), and 2.31 for a Knight for that board size, for example (with the other pieces being of even greater value), though as usual my ways of calculating values are primitive/suspect, for some/many people I suspect. :) Naturally though, for a given board size, 2 or more Guards would be worth more than (2+)x the value of a single guard.
