Hi , on here, online it's a Green board with blk and white pieces . Would prefer bk in reality a darkish brown wood for my real board and ebony and boxwood pieces. See official Staunton Fischer board and Fischer Spassky 72 series. What I have now is just a green and white plastic/pvc style board and plastic black n white pieces. No cool dude not cool but usable. : )

I agree with Palivec and KID Harish.  Brown board and classic pieces.

The board has to be classic brown with fancy corners. The set of pieces should be black and black.

Exactly the same shade of black for both sides?

Avatar of CookedQueen

black and black, hence for both sides. You have to remember where you moved your pieces wink.png

Most of the chess games I played in past decades were played on USCF green vinyl boards and often with the cheap USCF sets using the cheap USCF "made in West Germany" analog clocks with flags.

Consequently, I've grown so used to it my current silicone and mousepad boards are green as is the board I use at chess.com!

I've rotated with colors and pieces shapes/styles and ended up preferring the Neo (standard?) pieces because when I have a lot of simultaneous daily games going and I looking at the tiny "current games" boards, it's clear which pieces are bishops vs pawns.  The other styles I like show the whole bishop piece and the skinny top above the base is too much like a pawn.

You know, I'm finding the Neo pieces are a good alternative to the Classic. Anybody else use the Neo? I'm starting to like them.

 

 

Neo and Neo -wood. Anyone knows who designed them?
