Uhh...looks kinda neat...but if I tried to play with anything but
Staunton style pieces I would never win.
I remember a story about Bobby Fischer at a simul where a kid used a
figurine set and lost his queen and Bobby said "Hey knights don't
move like that!" to which the kid replied "That isn't a knight! That is a
bishop!" After resigning he refused to play against anyone who did not
have a Staunton set.
Just my thoughts...cool for variety...not very practical
