Cheque Mate ?

Imagine you are in the middle of no where with 200 kids all wanting to play chess at the same time and you have no chess sets. How could you satisfy their demand for playing the game today ?

Three ideas from here - carve some pieces from wood or soapstone ( or soap ) even. or, Take three sheets of A4 paper and make a 3D chess set from that,  ( pictures coming ) to be used as well as a Chequers game. ( online here )  Other ideas to improve your FIDE rankings -  perhaps play chess online here at chess.com or lichess.com .

Your ideas welcome too, here or there, or in another space. ( always three options, A,B,C )

Imagine being in the middle of nowhere with 200 kids eager to play chess but without any chess sets! Here are three creative solutions to meet their demand:

1. Carve Pieces: Use local materials like wood, soapstone, or even soap to carve chess pieces.
2. 3D Paper Chess Set: Use three sheets of A4 paper to make a 3D chess set, which can double as a checkers game. (Pictures coming soon!)
3. Online Chess: Improve your FIDE rankings by playing chess online at chess.com or lichess.com.

What are your ideas? Share them here or in another space. Remember, there's always an option A, B, or C!
