I got a chess set

This set is not the cheapest wooden set you can get but I got it because I wanted wood (moisture absorbing) and wanted a set that still feels valuable. A numbers chess board that was all pawns was a plus.

Overall I like the set, most astonishing is that I can en passant on every move now, of course it’s not the traditional experience of a chess cassette but it feels and sounds right.

We’re parodying chessbeginners already? Anarchy truly has returned.

I don't want to be blunt, but that is clearly not a chess set. It's a go set.
