We have Hunter Overtaker Rettah Switcher Equerry.
The array on 8x8 is to the right. ___ ___ ___ ___ ___ ___ ___
Hunter(H) goes forward Rook-like O___O___O___O___O___O___O___O
backward Bishop-like. S___H___E___R___R___E___H___S
Among 'O's we choose Overtaker(O).
Eight Pawns are Lavieri's Overtaker from Altair (2003).
Rettah Chess (1952) is V.R. Parton's first variant before Alice Chess
(1953). Rettah King(R) moves as all other pieces combined.
Switcher(S) is Bishop moving as B or King, or changes places with an enemy Switcher. (Ron Kensek's Chaos Chess from around 1980).
H. E. Bird's (1874) Equerry(E) is Carrera's (1617) Centaur, Bishop +
Knight.
Rules: If Rettah is checked, the checker must be captured immediately
(after Rettah Chess). Alternate win by capture of both Rettahs.
