Replacement Pieces and Playing Partners?   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #238 of 242 |
Hello, all!

I am not sure if anyone is listening to this list anymore, but, if you
are, greetings and salutations!

I have had a Chess^3 ("Chess Cubed") set since I was a kid, but I have
never played Millennium Chess. Are Chess^3 and Millennium Chess sized
the same? I just measured my Chess^3 set, and it appears to have 1"
squares and 2 1/8" kings. Does anyone know where I can get 2 1/8" king
sized replacement pieces? The shortest I have found are 2 1/2" kings.
Will these be too big to fit on the 1" squares? Let me know what your
experiences are.

Also, let me know if anyone is up for a play-by-email game of either
Chess^3 rules or Millennium Chess rules game (or both :)). I have a .pdf
scanned in copy of the rules for Chess^3, if anyone is interested. I
tried joining the Chess Club at my University (I am a returning math
grad student) but they are all too good; I lost every match decisively
and didn't learn much from any of the losses. I am hoping that since
Millennium Chess is such a novelty, I can get some opponents at my level
and can have some interesting games.

Thanks for reading, and I hope to hear from someone soon.

Sincerely,
--

Hi Jeffery, Welcome to the Millennium 3D Chess group*.  This is in response to your question if a Chess^3 (i.e., Chess Cube) is the right "size" to play...

Hi Jeffrey, You may be able to find original pieces on eBay. I've seen whole sets (board and pieces) go fairly cheap. Best regards, Brent...
