Everyone knows that chess is a game that requires a great deal of skill, strategy, intelligence, and maybe a little bit of luck to. A good chess player, one who wins tournaments, is almost always someone who is able to look at how their opponent is moving their game pieces, and seems to be able to predict what the next moved will be.
People who don't play chess never give the set much thought, they usually assume that one set is pretty much the same as the every other chess set. People who play and love chess know that nothing could be farther from the truth. There are several different kinds and styles of chess sets.
The Staunton Set
The most classic chess set is the Staunton set. The Staunton set is most preferred by the average chess player. If you attend a chess match, the set that is most likely being used is a Staunton. When people talk about the Staunton chess, they always mention words like stylish, elegant, and simple.
The Themed Chess Set
A recent urge to try to modernize the game of chess has prompted some of the manufactures to start providing the public with themed sets. Themed sets are becoming increasingly popular with the younger generation of chess players
War Themed Sets
These are actually very cool sets. Some of the pieces are cavalry or artillery. Other game pieces are made up to represent some other aspect of war. The most popular war themed chess sets are the ones based on the American Civil War, but there are other war themed sets to choose from. One advantage to having a war themed set is that it usually promotes learning about whatever war the set is modeled after.
Medieval Themed Chess Sets
Stores that sell medieval themed chess sets are having a difficult time keeping the sets in stock. There is just something about the medieval era and chess that seem to go together. Another thing the owners have noticed is that people tend to ignore the sets that give an accurate portrayal of medieval life. The medieval sets that are popular are the ones that have game pieces shaped like dragons, unicorns, and fire birds. Playing chess with a medieval set allows the person to pretend that magic is real and that the world is full of possibilities.
Harry Potter Themed Sets
When you consider how important the game of chess was in the first Harry Potter book, it shouldn't come as any surprise that there are Harry Potter theme chess sets. Some of the sets look similar to chess pieces Ron and Harry played with, while other game pieces are done up to resemble the characters in the book.
There are many other themed sets available in a variety of sizes and topics. Finding the perfect themed set isn't difficult. They are available at most retail stores, and can also be found online.
