Making a new chess variation.

Hello. I just tought about a new chess variation, of my own tought, but I don't know how to develop it and how to make my variation popular.
It should be perfect for those who want to breakt their head, and I don't think computer will be to analyse it.

Eveything is played on a hexagonal board whit hexagonals space,
it should ressemble this but bigger

How would a rook move compared to a bishop?

I don't really know, It just increase the range of the pieces without giving really something new.
In my heads, this game will have a least 15 differants pieces.
Three types of pawn, knight, boshop, vizir, rook, witch, vampire, pirate, wolf, ghost, héro, magician, queens and king. Each will have their identity and the game will be unique, but how to make popular.

If it in hexagone, it travel by the adjacent square, while the bishop never quit his color, so his move will be like a knight.
In the image, the rook would have control of a1- f1, b1 -l l4 and c1- c9
While the bishop would control f2- e3- d4- c5- b6 -g3 -h4- i5- k-6, he also protect the two knigts

I think you'd better use a normal chess board, but bigger. It will be a very complicated game with the board you use now

Yes I think I will just use a normal chess board, but instead of being 8 per 8 it will be 10 per 10.

For the pieces. I got idea.
I just wonder if they are correct.
