         Chesmayne 2006 Edition       

 

Welcome to the largest on-line chess dictionary in the world.  Now you can print a ‘hardcopy’ of dozens of free chess games from around the world - amazing! Includes a new operating system [OS], global notation [example :immortal game] and a new extensive syntax for describing the moves on any sized chess board you care to think of.  Computer versions of standard chess are excellent but with Chesmayne you can PRINT a hardcopy of any orthodox chess set and board in the world in a few minutes - 6x6 to 10x10 and everything in between or make your own from 12x12 to 400x400.  See the current list of boards available below?   A new blank/ghost chess set is a handy addition to the 2008 edition of the dictionary. All you have to do is add piece names with a felt-tipped pen - couldn’t be simpler - just print and play immediately!  You can use the regular set of KI QU RO BS KT and PA to play your 1st game  of western orthodox chess or begin with the new super deluxe level-2 and 3 using PAs and GUs by clicking here?  You may also create your very own personal level of play by using your own palette of pieces - if you are the inventive type all you will need is a good imagination. Another option is to add blockers to the chessboard itself and/or new MPs/mps [click here for examples to get you started?]. Design your own personal chess set and any sized chess board or experiment with new pieces and different/unusual sized boards.  If you can’t find it here it probably doesn’t exist.  As usual - you know the story - the best is free - why pay more!

Just click below to PRINT chess sets and boards - takes about two minutes…….

Western 8x8, Chinese 10x9, Shogi 7x7, 9x9 & 10x10 etc.  Print-n-play levels 1, 2 and 3 [Western 8x8 array] with the board and pieces shown below [green text].  Print, cut, bend into a triangular shape and glue.  Use small coins/pennies as weights - simple!  Note: chess sets & boards may be edited in Microsoft Word - create your own set of chess pieces and design your own board!  See Add blockers + new MPs/mps [how to use] below? Email your finished artwork to Chesmayne@gmail.com for inclusion in this dictionary?  Place your completed chess board under a glass coffee table or into a plastic pocket/pouch - available at good stationers?  Just use A4 white paper or card. A4 photo paper gives a very nice glossy finish to your chess sets and boards! Use a black felt marker to write the names of the MPs/mps with the blank/ghost chess set below?  The main idea is to experiment and have some fun while making your very own chess set and board…….
