The idea of using a real chessboard to simulate an OTB game means that you don't move pieces around. You would play the game with the "one touch" rule meaning that all calculations must be done in your head.

Ok, then I don't see a problem with it.

There is a third option - change theme to using 3d pieces! Has anyone tried it, does i feel more similar to otb chess or 2d chess?

I want to be good at OTB so i'll go for the 3d pieces for a while, i like it so far.

It must be a bit messy and you'll lose some time. I personally don't have any problem to adapt from 2D to 3D and vice versa, probably because I've played OTB regularly too.
