That would be Q + N.

Supposedly there is to be a Fischer-Karpov match, but not in standard
chess, instead in a variant called Gothic Chess, which is similar to
the game Capablanca designed about 80 years ago, with two extra pieces
(R+N and B+N) and an 8x10 board.


I wonder why a third piece, one which combines R+N+B, wasn't added to
the mix.
