In chess, the bishop is generally considered more valuable than the knight because it has a longer range of movement and can control more squares on the board.
The King is perhaps the weakest piece on the board other than a pawn. The King is the most important, but not the strongest. It can move only one square at a time, whereas other than the pawn, which can only advance two spaces on its opening move, every piece may move more than one space beyond its position. The Queen is the most powerful on the board in terms of movement and capturing power. The King is very vulnerable in the opening and middlegame, but in the endgame where there are no Queens and very few other pieces it can become a monster of a piece.
The queen can move farther and in much more ways than any other piece on the board.
When a pawn is moved all the way across the board to row 8, it can be promoted, or swapped for a more valuable piece (usually a queen).
No one plays chess on a hexagonal board, at the same level of popularity and professionalism as real chess. It's a gimmicky variant and nothing more.
Pawns.
Pawns. There are 16 on the board , 8 for each player. But a true chess snob would say that there is no such "piece" . Many times the word "piece" means only the ones on the back rank. Pawns are referred to as, well, just pawns, not "pieces." Never the less, even official rules refer to all of the pieces as "pieces."
