With Royal KNAD both a Queen and a non-royal Lion can force checkmate (on 8x8). Even under conditions where the bare Lion is allowed to pass its turn (so that there never is any zugzwang).

Fairygen could not check if this would require the non-royal piece to deliver contact checks, though. (Which in the case  of a full Chu-Shogi Lion would get them rifle-captured.)
