I cannot call this game “bad”, but I agree with the British chess master William Winter that the standard Marshall-Chancellor and Cardinal-Archbishop pieces added to Chess obviate the Knights and Bishops to a great extent when combined with the Queen already existing. The Amazon arguably also obviates the Rook in addition to people being skeptical of adding it to Chess without adjusting the rules so it doesn’t overpower the game. Have you tried playing with Fusion Chess or Assimilation Chess rules with Men?

What do you think of this set of pieces to play Sac Chess (and Heavy Chess)?

Here's a photo I took of a setup for Sac Chess. The board and Chess pieces are from Omega Chess. The squares are 1.75 inches. I covered up the edges to hide the corner spaces and coordinates that don't match Sac Chess, since within the 10x10 area, the Omega Chess board had a dark square in each player's right corner. The Amazons, Chancellors, and Archbishops are from the Musketeer Chess piece kits for those pieces. The Sailor (Dragon King), Missionary (Dragon Horse), and Judge (Centaur) are represented by the Rook, Bishop, and Knight from Peter Ganine's Superba set. These pieces have human faces, which seemed appropriate for pieces that can move one space in any direction like a man.
