Chess Sets

Recommended Posts

Being that this game takes place in the lands where the worlds greatest game is still popular and widely played, I think it would be cool to have chess sets scattered about the countryside. I doubt Bohemia has this much time on their hands but it would be cool to have multiple sets and different boards. If you had white and black sets it would add to the role playing experience, e.g. bandits could be identified by their black sets (j/k). Maybe you could even have a permanant chess board or set somewhere where 2 players could agree to a game. This would be a good way to encourage non-violent congregation.

Guitars should also be included because it would be nice for players like me who want to put on a show/collect donations in the square at Cherno.

Anyhoo, this game is fantastic and I love the direction its headed.

How about, the 2 players agreed to a game and both of them go to an online chess site?

Not so sure, its maybe a step too far into the "open world". On the other hand it would add some atmosphere. Still.. maybe too much effort for the little use?

I would love usable chess sets, I don't know about the guitar though.

You go put on your show, fella. I think it may be quite a short show ;)

The chess pieces could be separate from the board and all my bandit minions could carry a piece according to rank. Pawn, rook, knight, bishop..

Anyways, I've always thought they should add a side activity to do when you're stocked up and just haning out with friends at camp. Would be interesting to have a nice game interrupted by gunfire (in which case we would most likely already be dead)

I think I'd start robbing people for their bishops. Just to piss everyone off.
