SEPT: ESCCP - Cosplay Chess By Auroa. 13/08/09, 05:58 pm |
| Cosplay Chess!
For anyone that doesn’t know what this is: cosplay chess is basically a game of chess using real people (cosplayers) who act out epic battles and death scenes! Depending on if we get enough people keen and if they can tell me who they're cosplaying as I will try to make this a themed cosplay match, (i.e good vrs bad characters, emo vrs bubbly etc.)
Rules and info:- Spoiler:
How it works: (Note: we will be playing small chess, so no this isn’t a game that’ll take hours, more like 15-30 minutes.) On a giant chess board, all pieces (from pawns to kings) will sit on their equivalent starting squares. Two ‘players’ will play a chess match, and when they make a move, will tell the piece (you), where to go, (i.e Naruto move two squares forward.) When one piece takes over another, an ‘in-character’ battle scene occurs, with the loser being the piece that is taken, and who ‘dies'' in a dramatic way.
Information: Note: There is a lot of planning/plotting and organizing going into this, so we may PM some pieces with important designated roles. Notes: This is known as small chess, the mat is a little different and there are less players needed. 20 pieces total, + 2 players, + extras and summons TBA) ~ You do not need to know how to play chess to be a piece, as you will be given instructions on where to move, who to fight etc. ~ You will need to pre-plan your epic little fight/win/death scenes, (unless we PM you and designated a special role) if you are not sure what type of moves to make, discuss here for ideas from others, or PM me and we can plan.
Signing up: ~ When you sign up, please say the character you are cosplaying from and what the show is. This is essential as I'd like to try and make this as in-character as possible. I may PM you to discuss further, especially if we want to assign you a special role. ~ Tell us you are confirmed or just a maybe (for whatever reason.) We don’t want people to back out on the day as a piece missing would kill the game. ~ Once we have enough people keen and can confirm we will be running this event, we will assign you what piece you will be - this depends on what theme the game is, and what character you are cosplaying as. At least thats the plan XD
Cosplay: ~If you want to play but are afraid can't make/find/get a cosplay on time, please still let us know you're keen.
So we have a mat (p.s Mandie, the mat will fit in the lounge right? o___O) and we need pieces! If you would like to be a piece say so here, and also who you are cosplaying as if you already know. Also, we will play a mix of game/anime battle music etc while the game is going - cause we can't have battles without battle music.
So, keen to play? Please say XD

| Lavi, you could do that, depending on the night, I was thinking we could try two versions of the game: A script game - so the piece-moves have already been planned out (however only the organisers know who will win.) A live game - so yeah a live match, who knows what the outcome will be!!
Just keep in mind, cosplay chess isn't going to be hours long lol, not even an hour, the script game is estimated to be 15min. The battles are the main entertainment of human chess afterall mwhahah. |

| I'll be Ashford C.C. for this! The Black queen! Oh yeah! Or whatever piece you want me to be. Just said that because Code Geass is based on a Chess game and all the characters play the parts of Chess pieces Lennon knows more about it that I do, we have been talking about this C.C is apparently the black queen but I'm happy with whatever. Just thought I'd throw some CG fan trivia out there. |
