My attempt at figuring out chadz system. It does appear that Bishop > Knight

 - Skinny pawn is apparently a queen. This is what chadz has currently. Two kings then?

if there was one chess piece that relates to my crpg playstyle it would probably be a sacrificial pawn.

There is no rabid axe rabbit in chess. ;-)

White, btw.

(click to show/hide)

It indeed goes pawn -> knight -> bishop -> rook -> queen -> king... not sure where you got the two kings or skinny pawn from. I can confirm that a pawn eventually evolves into knight, and I noticed someone go from a bishop to a rook. But screw chess pieces and their assigned values... everyone knows that knight is the strongest piece! It's the freakin queen killer!

I have to stop posting now because Knights are best.
Why would I want to trade my horse for a cross and all the young maidens for a god?
Knight>Bishop any time!

Can downvotes help to downgrade back to knight? Don't like the Bishop for some reason.

Was gonna suggest using chesspieces as the Kickstarter badges, since a representation can be added in the pledge sidebar ♟♙♞♘♝♗♜♖♛♕♚♔, but I decided it's way better to have something more original and not add confusion by having different representations or anything.

Now I'm once again torn - my heart is with cav, but in chess, knight is my least favourite piece.

Rook is favourite as a general piece and I certainly have no problems with castles in general, but black bishop is probably the piece I most identify with, despite a general dislike for bishops as non-chess pieces.

I'm going to look at it as win/win and go with whatever I get (thus welcoming an eternity of regret).
