Hello guys. I was thinking about it, and figured that each piece in chess represents a particular type of warrior with a particular weapon. I'd like to present it to you like this:

Pawn:The common foot soldier, always having a little knife at hand and one hidden under the belt. They were often untrained, inexperienced people who were sent first to test the enemy strength. However, these people learned fast and held great potential. After reaching a certain stage, they may get as powerful as any other piece, except the king.

Knight: These were the men in shining armour, always standing up to fight and known for their unique code and method of fighting. They had a lance, which could attack  the enemy at almost any position. These were the only ones who could attack efficiently the most powerful warrior of all, the Spartan commander.

Bishop: These were the Mamluk warriors. They were great archers, and underwent rigorous training to achieve the respect they have. However, because of the training and the bow, they could attack on long distances but only on one particular way(because of being righty or lefty). Nevertheless, they demand respect.

Rook: This was the Viking warrior. They went around with a huge axe and their equally huge muscles, and could crush a human skull without any effort. Because of their heavy built, they could attack only front, back, left and right. Also, because of their weak mobility they were often vulnerable to weaker people. Nevertheless, when faced one on one,nobody had the guts to fight them, maybe except....

Queen: This, was the great Spartan warrior. Nobody dares to mess around with this honour-guts-and-glory guy.Armed with a shield and a spear, these soldiers were the terror, perhaps only vulnerable to the knight. Everybody fears a spartan.

King: This was the fat old idiot. He is always a burden, with a long sword andbossing around his troops and goading them to fight. However, the moment the soldiers on the field become less, he starts to become a hero. A true puzzle, this piece.

I hope you all like this article. Have a nice day!

That's pretty and all, but how about the pawn being a foot-soldier, the bishop being a bishop, the knight being a knight, the rook being a wall or something, the queen being a queen and the king being a king. It's much more complicated and abstract than your system, but I think you can grasp the basics Wink
