Chess is really cool. It's fun to play, has a lot of replay value and the graphics also have a unique appeal to them. I didn't like the sequel though, it was too much of a rehash and the new fps sections were horribly implemented.
Chess tier list: God tier: Queen Top tier: Knight Middle tier: Rook, Bishop Low tier: King Peasant tier: Pawn Hax tier: Pawn who reaches the enemy base line This post has been edited by P.P.A.: Jan 2 2009, 10:44 PM |

Uh, no, PPA
God tier: Knight, Rooks King tier: Bishop, Queen Top tier: Rook, Pawn Low tier: King ~~~ Писатель всегда будет в оппозиции к политике, пока сама политика будет в оппозиции к культуре.

Rooks take 3 turns to start being useful though. First you have to move the pawn in front of them, then position them behind it and then move them horizontally so they can start doing things.
Unless you want them to remain in the back alley so they can do that rochade move with the King. I see what you mean with the Knight being God tier and the King low tier though. This post has been edited by P.P.A.: Jan 3 2009, 09:14 AM |

Rooks, when parallel, create a line of death. And if one is killed, the other immediately destroys whatever killed it. Hence why I specified that Rooks (plural) is god tier, Rook (singular) is mere top tier.

Ah, figures. Even though then I still think the single rook should be on a lower tier.

That is evil.
I still play Chess. Not to regularly anymore since my job conflicts with the time I was able to spend on the school team this year. |

I play chess. Although, to tell the truth, I haven't played in a long time, so I kind of suck now. :/ I like chess, though, it's got an air of class and intellect.
I'd like to try that one with cannons (Think it's Japanese chess, could be Chinese), but only one person I know owns it, and I never get to go to his house. ~~~  |

Come to think of it, my dad said, "Here, learn to play shogi" and tossed an instructional manga into my lap. :/
I suck at western chess. This is one of the primary reasons it is better to keep me away from the military. I have no tactical sense whatsoever, unless it's a soccer/water polo game. D: |
