Abstract is a good choice for the piece set, though I'm biased. I will mention that three of the pieces you chose (besides the King) were designed as royal pieces for games with alternate royal pieces (mainly Fusion Chess and Cavalier Chess). The one that could most easily be confused for a royal piece is the one combining the King and Knight images. There is a nonroyal alternative that combines the Man and the Knight. This is called ct in the Abstract: All set. I'll add some non-royal alternatives for the others later.

Another thing that is important is to make a connection between the diagram and your descriptions. Including an image of each piece in the piece descriptions is a good way to do this. An alternate way to do this is to mention which spaces each piece starts on.
