Heroscape Chess
I like playing Chess from time to time, and I thought I could jazz it up by using heroscape figures. I thought utgar vs. everyone else.
Here are my ideas for figures so far:

Utgar:
Cyprien- King
Sonya- Queen
Drones- Pawns
Zettians- Rooks
Ne-gok-sa x2- Bishops
????- Knights

Other side:
KOW- Knights
Tarn Vikes x2- Pawns
Kelda- Queen
Carr- King
4th Mass.- Rooks
10th reg.- Bishops

So what do you guys think? Suggestions?
73 tournaments. 175 - 145 - 1 overall record. 6 tournament wins.

Re: Heroscape Chess
Actually, we do have a Heroscape advanced chess thing in one of the Heroscape Codex articles. It's chess, but its played simultaneously on three dimensions.

Re: Heroscape Chess
One time, when my friend and I were playing, we used Minions and Knights for Pawns. I would change the knights to Pawns, replace Kelda with Raelin, King Drake, Bishops Thorgrim and Finn, Rooks, two Sentinals,and Knights, maybe 2 Sir Denricks?

For Utgar, replace the Pawns with Zombies. You could put Taelord as King, and Runa as Queen. Then you could put Minions for Pawns.
I think Utgar is fine as it is, though.

I'd take Raelin over Kelda as the Queen. Really, you could make a armies for every general, or even some of the themes within generals.

Samurai:
Taro - King
Kato - Queen
Izumi - Bishops
Tagawa - Knights
Kozuze - Rooks
Ashigaru - pawns

Fun idea. But I'd rather play heroscape than chess. (And no, that's not a knock on chess.)

Re: Heroscape Chess
For bugs like Sujoah, its usually queens that have power.

In chess, the queen is arguably the most powerful piece.

Mess with the Dragon you're going to get burned.
Not only do the rules say you're wrong, they also say you're a duck.

Hmm.... Aquilla's army seems like the worst. 1 King and 15 pawns. Cool chess teams.

Without dark, there is no light.
Without bad HScape figs, there are no good ones.
Dund is important, therefore
