摘要
A chess set is provided which has a plurality of playable pieces and a dimensional chess board. These pieces consist of, chess men and the pawns each having a structure comprising of channel like lines at the base and a geometric band inscribed on the front of each piece. The geometric bands identify the pieces into groups with matching bands. The channel like lines that extend around all sides of the playable pieces indicate the point value of each chess piece and pawn. The structure of the chess pieces also includes a cavity at the base with an opening that a particular pawn fits exactly inside of identifying a visual relationship between them with the chess piece becoming the parent piece of the pawn. A pawn that reaches the eighth rank becomes a replication of its parent piece with the exception of the king's pawn which can become any piece except another king. The chess pieces have geometrically shaped tops that indicate the movement potential of each piece when it is engaged in play. These shapes are defined as being either a collection of slots or a collection of notches. The slots represent movement of the piece the full length of the chessboard along the ranks, the files, or diagonally. The notches represent limited mobility along the ranks, the files, or diagonally as indicated in the fame rules. The top of each pawn has a longitudinal axis that indicates forward movement when it is positioned for play.
