First ever functional LEGO Travelling chess set

At least the first I've seen. Those that have ever seen a real chessboard will understand what I mean, but not how I mean it. It would definetely be better with the alphabet set but alas, I have none. To move, select horizontal colour first and vertical second.

I dread the days when Dad asks me for a game of chess. But never mind that. This has come out really well. Nice techniques used to make the pieces.

It is far easier to recognize openings, checks and mates with numbers and letters, and you can even play it with blind people then! Again, that chess wouldn't fit in MY pocket.

Quoting Deus Otiosus And again, one can't hold figures, one is too thick, and none has any letters and numbers. For wich I use colours.

Numbers and letters aren't essential in playing chess; I don't play with them. This one: http://www.mocpages.com/moc.php/246264 can hold figures, it has 2 boards.

Then tell me where are the numbers and letters? And mine is so much thinner, that there really isn't much competition between their practicality(?).

This chess set is great, and I really like it!!! But I have heard of one other functional traveling chess set, so I looked it up for you. http://www.flickr.com/photos/akunthita/4467369696/ And these can actually be bought! Great MOC, though!!!
