Cryptos Chess

Hi everyone, just wondered if anybody had any thoughts on this variant that I've designed. Take a look if you can.....

I'm always skeptical about 'improvements' to chess, but this seems like an interesting idea. Best of luck with the project :)

That looks awesome, and a very amusing and interesting idea too, that there's a kingstone hidden in one of the pawns.

Thank you for the positive comments. The idea is meant to be a fun alternative. It was important for me to create a set that one could play Chess the traditional way too.

I'm also curios how using computer software would aid a player in Cryptos Chess, as the added element of uncertainty would make the game less calculable.

Thank you again.

Apologies 'curious'.
