I do not like it when people view the Tower as the equivalent of a Rook. It is the equivalent of the Crooked Rook. (You'll see if you connect the cells' centres.) Thank you, Graeme, for including both pieces. In a subvariant, you could include the 'Elephant', the triangular equivalent of a Crooked Bishop. You could replace the Queen with the Elephant.
