If you could rename the chess pieces...

While you're at it, let's change the rules too. How about a piece called the Half-blood Prince and depending on the mood, the piece may or may not change sides.

Knight would be paladin, bishop a sage or troubadour/Valkyrie, rook would be general, queen be queen and king be king.

Hey, you play fire emblem? which one(s)?

Splendid! =)

King, Lady, Tower, Runner, Jumper, Peon.
in some foreign languages, the rook is called a tower and the knight is called a jumper or leaper.
The best one so far is "Shecky".
