To Jeremy Good: 

Thanks for your enthusiasm,but I have realised that my tentative set is
indiscreet. To devise is more difficile than I thought.

I decided to let 'Crowned Nobility' set have a vulnerable spot to
balance  too powerful 'Crowned Pieces'. Maybe I make an inept thing
again.

*The Rooks: the Crowned rook 

(Rooks puls King) 

*The Bishop:the Crowned bishop 

(Bishop plus King) 

*The Knight: the Crowned knight 

(Knight plus king) 

*The Queen: the Figurehead 

(It can't be moved.It also can't capture. Enemy can capture it.) 




To Andreas Kaufmann: 

Your opinion hitted the nail. Easier rule would apeal to more favorers. 
Alought CWDS would not be in vouge,CWDA is still an excellant and
interesting variant.
