If you need someone to boost your confidence, look no farther.
Turns out I'm better than I expected. Apparently I'm the best at Chess on this forum, as such I am now:

Who will take the knife to my heart?

I might be a little bit more of a help at boosting confidence than others... ;)

There might be some timezone issues while playing against me, but I might give this a go anyway :)

Serwis, since I am a dude.

Second Apocalypse themed chess set.  Someone make it so, and I will buy it.

Lmao @ Wilshire's edited post.

This got lost on another topic

I'd buy one as well.

King - Arc, capture this and you win
Queen - Inchoroi, the most powerful of the pieces
Bishop - Skin-Spies, strong yet subtle
Knight- Wracu, flies over the heads of other pieces
Rook- Bashrag, the powerful backbone of your offense

I think the black set should be as noted above.  The white set should be the "good" side.  K, Akka, Esmi, SS, Proyas etc..


How would the White pieces be done then?

King - Kellhus, if he dies all is lost
Queen - Swayali, the most powerful magi
Bishop - SS, not as powerful as their Gnostic counterparts, but regal enough to fill this role
Knight - Kidruhil (sorry spelling), the King's most powerful knight cadre
Rook - Mandati, 2nd most powerful
Pawns - men of the tusk, numerous and powerful in groups.

Sweet.

Kellhus's piece would have to be a figure on the Circumfix :).

EDIT: Are these spoilers lol?

I challenged you, fool. I get that I stopped playing three games at once - everyday, all day - but I'm still down to have running games. Especially during the school year.

Haha yes it was a good few weeks. It gets tiresome winning all the time, you know?

Jk, though. Just a busy this month. I'm sure things will get slow again and I'll look around and see if anyone is playing still (meaning I'll challenge you and ping you on TSA to pay attention to me).
