How about this then:

K+G vs K+R+N on 8x8 is 95% won with white (= the side with G) to move. With black to move still 35% of all positions is won. (There are many positions where black can capture your G or K on the first move, after which you cannot win anymore. K+R+N on the average cover 6.6+5.25+14 ~ 25 squares or 35% of the board, and either your K or G might be in their line of fire, explaining the bulk of the other 65% positions.)

I cannot exclude there are some fortress draws.

Do you think 5 is a good value for a piece that almost always slaughters a Rook + Knight in the end-game?
